HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO MAKE AN ANIMATION
BUT NOT HAVE TO DRAW
HERE IS I, PERIDOT'S, LITTLE TUTORIAL ON HOW TO MAKE ANIMATIONS WITH PHOTOBASHING.
ON THE MAIN PAGE OF THIS WORLD ALL OF THE ANIMATIONS ARE MADE BY GRABBING SEVERAL UNRELATED IMAGES AND MAKING AN ANIMATION WITH THEM. THERE MAY BE A NAME FOR THIS BUT I JUST CALL IT PHOTOBASHING ANIMATION.
IT IS AS SIMPLE AS IT SOUNDS. SO, SAY YOU WANT TO MAKE AN ANIMATION OF A MANTIS FLEXING ITS ARMS ...
- STEP 1: LOOK UP SUBJECT ON INTERNET. I LOOKED UP "MANTIS."
- STEP 2: GET PICTURES OF SUBJECT IN MULTIPLE STAGES OF MOTION. 'BORROW' THESE IMAGES. HEH HEH.
-
- STEP 3: REMOVE BACKGROUND USING SOME SORT OF ART PROGRAM. (OPTIONAL: TURN POSTERIZATION DOWN TO AROUND 4 FOR CRUNCHINESS.)
- STEP 4: EXPORT EACH IMAGE AS PNG AND PLUG INTO EZGIF.COM GIF MAKER.
