Assignment 7 was to create an animation using Fuzzwich. After I had created and finished my project early the site was obviously deleted. Dr. Yuen had me re-create my animation using GoAnimate.com. It was to consist of 2 characters. These characters had to have appropriate actions, faces, and speech bubbles to go with the theme of my choice. Upon completion I embedded my GoAnimate animation to our social network on mixxt.com.
GoAnimate had a great number of things I could do with my animation the Fuzzwich did not have. The cartoon I created was called ‘The Sleepy Shopper’. I love to shop and will stop anything I’m doing to go shopping. It shows a female character sleeping having a great dream and then her husband comes and tries to wake her up. She first gets an attitude then he mentions that its shopping day and she hops out of bed cheering.
I loved using GoAnimate.com. It was a very fun tool that allowed me to really personalize my animation. Providing me with so many different features to use I got to allow my imagination to run wild. I can’t wait to show my nephew this application because he will have a blast creating his own animation. I will defiantly suggest this free tool to others and inspire them to use it. My experience using GoAnimate was very fun and I’m glad Fuzzwich shut down because I got the opportunity to be introduced to this site.

I agree with you that fuzzwich was not all that exciting. When I first saw fuzzwich I was really disappointed because it was so easy but not a fun easy project that I would enjoy. It looked so boring and uninteresting.On the other hand, your video was a good animation. It is like "Evey Woman's Dream" to have thier man be ready to go shopping. This animation tool allowed the user to be creative. This is also something I will show to my niece and friends so they can be creative.
ReplyDeleteHaha, nice animation. The text-to-voice feature is pretty odd at times but it also makes the whole project pretty funny. The animation did get a little weird at times (like when the girl walked behind the guy) so there's probably a few other features you can play around with, like layering, to make it all a bit smoother. But otherwise, you can clearly put GoAnimate to use, as shown by using the text boxes and different effects. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteGreat Animation, I laughed the entire time.
ReplyDeleteI agreee, fuzzwich did not look to be a lot of fun and I was happy when Dr. Yuen changed it to this tool. You put a lot of work into your animation. I loved watching it. Only if every man was that excited about taking his wife shopping every girl would be in heaven!
ReplyDeleteI actually liked using fuzzwich even though it didnt work right. Your video was funny and entertaining. Overall it was a great animation!
