To create my animation, i used Adobe Illustrator to draw out the different parts of the animation. i
used multiple artboards to show what my animation would look like in different periods of time. To
actually finish the animation, i had to go on the Adobe Photoshop. i copied and pasted the artboards
from AI to PS. The artboards will all transfer to vector smart objects. then i used timeline to set the
animation up by selecting “make frames from layers.” I set the time delay time for each frames as
0.5 seconds, so i wouldn’t last too long, and i set the time of repeating as forever. After making
some other little adjustments, i saved the file for web as a GIF. This project meets my expectation,
but i realized that i can do even better as i know more and more about the creation of an animation.
If I am going to do it again, i will spent even more time on the AI, I would create more art boards so
that my animation will look more natural.
