I have never made a GIF before, but I really like them and have seen some amazing ones. So I figured why not make my first one now?
I didn’t want to do the usual GIF of myself or a person, and when the assignment said to attempt to give it a 3D effect I had a cartoon in mind for some reason. So I dug through a box of old toys, and a motorcycle I got as a 21st birthday present from a friend. (because I want a motorcycle sooo bad, hence… a motorcycle lol)
It took me a few trys, but I simply took 2 pictures of Donald Duck on his wheels from slightly different angles. Then went on this website called gickr.com that makes lets you upload pictures, pick a speed, and size… and generates a GIF for you. it is really cool, and fun. I most definetely plan on playing around with it more in this course.
I like to think I did an okay job for my first GIF, and I love the fact that it’s the ever-so hot-tempered Donald Duck… rebellious as ever and ready to take off on his dirt bike. No helmet, visor, pads… only a sombrero to protect him.
