Hello again internet folks.
Today i present to you with a blog. These are many blogs like it, but this ones mine. Today we'll be doing and discussing the magic of gif. Or is it jifs? No. No it's gifs. It stands for graphic interchange format. That's a hard 'g' people! If it stood for genomics interchange format I could sympathize. Even though the guy who invented the format says it's a soft 'g', i don't care.
Anyway.
To do this came to me quickly, or rather, from my friend. He and I were sitting in a classroom pondering ideas as students do, and while doing another fairly typical student activity, the idea came to us! So, i launched me up some Photoshop, took out my cell phone and went to town on the first thing i saw.
A coffee cup, of course. What else we were doing?

A fairly self explanatory adventure after that; 30 pictures later and an upload to drop box, I had the pictures of a chase between a man and his illusive coffee.
How I made the gif was thanks to this lovely tutorial on youtube.
Here’s my finished product:
It will be here when i figure out how to make gifs work on blogger, until then here it is on my deviantArt

There, however, is also a bonus to this question. It is “Implement an effect preset in Photoshop and apply it to your animated sequence. The effect must be something we have described in class”
The wording of this confused me a bit, as googling “effect presets in photoshop” didn’t yield me anything I took to be what he meant, I found action presets and assumed it was the same thing.
Action presets is basically a recording of photoshop effects that you apply to an image. For example if you record yourself doing steps to apply bloom to a photo, you can apply those same steps to any other photo you ever edit.
Until next time,
