My progress on creating my videos.

  This is the last blog post that I will make for this class. The last thing I created was a poster for the film festivals coming up in a couple weeks. My film teachers requested that people create a poster for the film festival, and this is what I created.       This whole poster is a homage/reference to Sonic Mania. The words Lights, Camera, Action! Specifically come from the song in the game titled that. I figured that it would fit perfectly for a film poster, and if anyone gets this reference when they see it in the hallways, they have my respect! Well, that's all for my independent project journey. I had lots of fun exploring various things, such as creating videos, animations, and cool images in photoshop! I can't wait to create even cooler stuff next semester!

  After looking around for things to do, I decided to just open up photoshop and create something cool. Fortunately, on that day there was this sticker contest, so I decided to make something in photoshop!  The sticker/poster that I made for anti-vaping week Some of the things that I used to create this was the gradient tool for the backgrounds, quick select tool/magic eraser to remove the background off of images, brush tool to add faces onto the brain and lungs, and the text tool to create the text + changing some of the properties such as a drop shadow.      The next day, I wanted to create the thumbnail for a youtube video that I'm currently working on at home.  This is just a prototype, but what I imagine the thumbnail will somewhat look like. I plan to add something to the text to make it easier to read at a smaller scale, and something extra for the background. Lots of creating this was just playing around with properties and filters to just see what...

  On day 5 and 6, I created a couple animations for the game that I wanted to originally make. Creating these animations were pretty challenging, since I was looking at the animation I wanted to copy, but there were some complex movements that were pretty hard to replicate in roblox studio, but I did create them and I think they turned out fantastic! This is an idle animation I created for my character. This is another idle animation where the character hits a little dance. After creating this, I wanted to create all the other mechanics of this game. I wanted to create a turn based rpg, but I couldn't really find any tutorials on it similar to something that I wanted, so I just abandoned the idea. On day 7, I decided to try and create a simple 2d obstacle course. First I tried to make a ground pound function in the game, since I like to create movesets first, then create the map. I was able to make the ground pound animation, and it looks pretty good! I ended up running into errors...

  Back in October when I was starting the independent project, I was working in premiere pro to create a gaming type video for my YouTube channel. I won't be returning back to this specific project, due to me completing the video in my own free time.  Link to the video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Gz7t_SbBiY&pp=ygUqUm9ib3QgNjQgYnV0IEkgY2FudCB0b3VjaCBhIHNwZWNpZmljIGNvbG9y         For the next part in this project, I want to play around more with Roblox studio to create a unique game. There are a couple ideas that I want to try, such as a fighting game, rpg, and obby. By the end of the semester I plan to have at least a working prototype of what I imagine the game to look like, full of scripts, custom decals using photoshop and animations!
