Our Animation Story



Our focus statement is "House Reunites Family" and it tells Kacie story. The story is how in the past Kacie has a big fight with her sister which leads her to move out. In our animation she is told to go back in time and say sorry for what she said/did to make her sister move out. She is told to go back in time by the old house, the same house Kacie and her sister had fight in. The old house spirit is the reason why Kacie goes back in time to fix things.

I don't really think there was really a lesson in our story but it sorta does which is that you always have a chance to fix things. I really like this because I know that I will always have a chance to fix something I might regret. I think people will really connect with this lesson because it shows that Kacie really regrets what she did and some people do feel the same way when they regret something.

My team worked really good together even though we had our up and downs. Some of our worst moments is when we first started because I remember the day we were all stating and none of my teams members didn't came and I was getting really worried because I didn't know what I was suppose to do. I believe that we have a lot of good moments like how we had only 6 seconds and then the same day we got up to 32 seconds. Another good moment is when we were watching our animation Cephas would start dancing to the song because he made the soundtrack and how we got really along with each other when we were filming all together. I haft to say that this is one of the teams that I really liked working with.




Animation Outtakes

As I spent time working on our animation project, which is titled "House Heunites Family".  I have learned new things and more about my teammates. The 3 amazing and talented people I have in my group are Ashley, Kacie, and Cephas. Some interesting facts about Ashley is that she does gymnastics and she has two cats. Two interesting facts about Kacie is that she loves marvel and that she used to live in Arizona. Two interesting facts about Cephas is that one time he ate dirt and another time he ran into a pillar and got a scar on his head.

Some animation types are stop-motion and gif. Stop-motion is a animation technique to make a object or a person appear to move on its own. Stop-motion is made from different picture frames and it gives the illusion of movement when its actually playing over again in a sequence. Gif is short for Graphics Interchange Format. A gif is a bunch of photos being put together and putting a loop on them so it keeps repeating over and over again.

We are telling Kacie's story about how she and her sister had a fight. In her story she regrets ever fighting with her sister so she wants go back and fix everything before her sister leaves. In our animation she like goes back in time to fix something he regrets. You guys should care because a lot of people can relate that they have done something in the past that they regret now and would want a second chance to make things right. I think our story will really connect with others because they probably have experience this problem.
