Caption 9 I selected this artifact as
one of my best works, because I saw that planning did not dampen
my creativity. At first it was difficult, because I wanted to jump
to the end product. Now I realize that the planning stages of a
product are just as rewarding as the final product. After carefully
planning each step of the the assignment, I was very happy with
the final results. I felt very successful when I completed my unit
lesson.

#9 Descriptors: Digital Graphics Unit lesson. We were assigned the task of planning a digital graphic/animation lesson plan. As the course progressed we added to our unit with the final lesson presented in module four.
Title: The Making of
Frankenstein Course: Digital Graphics/Animation Date Created: November
6, 2003 Source: Internet, Yearbook
photos, and personal knowledge Media: Macromedia Dreamweaver,
Adobe Photoshop, Adobe LiveMotion, and Word Description: I thought that a good way to learn more about digital graphics would be to create a monster. Students would be able to bring pictures to be scanned and then edited, a pin-up monster. Students will learn different cropping techniques through out the process. After the monster is completed, then comes the task of bringing the monster to life with the use of animated. "What you are about to see is one of my finest experiments! But you must be warned this will not be pretty. I am afraid that I have not perfected my creation. If you feel a little screamish, you may leave by clicking on the back button. I just hope you can make it! I call my creation Frankenstein.
He is a collection of parts from many brave victims, I mean volunteers.
He was put together in my computer laboratory with tools from Adobe
Photoshop and brought to life with my secret formula.....Adobe LiveMotion" Rationale: No pun intended
but I hope that this type of assignment will take the fear
out of learning new software and new concepts. I think that once
the students become familiar with the cutting and pasting of the
different features that they would now be able to move on to a more
complex assignment. I do not believe that this assignment would
be too difficult or intimidating to a student. Implications for future: I hope to use this assignment in my class. Again, learning how to manipulate a photo would help the students learn new software and apply their skills to future assignments. Reviewers Comments:
Great website. I love the whole laboratory - Frankenstein theme.
