Video & Animation

Our assignment for this project was to create an animation in Photoshop. I used version CS2 to create this animation. I first imported some pictures I had of my dog, then proceeded to adjust the images at times having to use the clone stamp to get rid of people that were in some of the backgrounds. I then created the background from a swatch of grass that I grabbed from one of the images. I used the transform tool and added lots of effects such as gradient overlay, shadows etc. and used the blur, smudge, and dodge tool in addition to applying some adjustment layers. Then I added text layers for the title and the poem at the end. I also tweened some of the animation frames. There are around 30 frames.
