If you for some reason wish to not do this project, here is a link for two alternative projects that you must complete: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_80325DMNM

End Of Quarter

The end of the quarter is Tuesday the 17th. That means that all make-up work must be turned in by then or it will be recorded in the grade book as a zero. You are responsible for checking your grades to make sure that you have turned everything in. If you have any questions concerning any of the projects, you can email me anytime. All past projects are posted on this blog. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to check older posts if you don't find what you are looking for on the first page. The current Kinetic Type project is worth 100 points.

Kinetic Type

Kinetic Type Project:
Kinetic type literally means moving type so that is what the project is. You are to animate the words from a song, speech or a dialogue. The project has to be at least 60 seconds and you can go over the duration if you want to. I am grading on composition (height: 600 width: 800) Frame Rate: 25 fps.

Here are some examples of kinetic type:
