GOV310L & GOV312L

August 23, 2022 By De'sha Bass-McClellan

GOV310L Animated Intro:

For this animated intro, I was given a selection of various images and I was tasked with create a simple intro with images appearing and disappearing. Originally, I had multiple images on the screen at once and they were in their rectangle form. However, to match the original assets in the course, I rounded the images and added a blue overlay.

GOV312L Animated Intro:

Before taking on this animation edits, I thought I would need to recreate the entire design before I could animate. However, I found a BEAUTIFUL thing that you can import PSD files into After Effects too!!!! This has most definitely changed my life. With that, I was able to retain the image quality and their positions to all them to move across the screen.

MKT320 & AFR303

MKT320 & AFR303

For MKT320, I was tasked with flipping the images on the vertical monitor to be the correct way. This was the original monitor:

This is the edit:

For AFR303, I had to create a vertical monitor for this course. I wanted to create something that would match the original course graphic backdrop.

This was the original design I came up with, but it was still missing elements to draw it into the asset family.

 

To adjust the changes, I decided to provide spaces between the images and lower their opacity. In addition, I broke up the red bar to match the backdrop. We decided to also go with the all caps version to create a cohesive design.

A Closer Look Segment

A Closer Look

project: “A Closer Look” Animation
Client /Prof: Dr. Yeager
completion status: Started July 18th
staff guidance: Maddy
STA team members: N/A
description/plans: Based on Seth Meyer’s Closer Look animated intro, replicate the design with design elements for the course.
To be completed: August 3rd

For this project I thought it was best to start off with an animation proposal to showcase how I was going to uses the courses assets to make the new animation.

 

A Closer Look

After creating the proposal, I just needed to create all the new assets and finish the animation:

NTR Animations

This is the animations for the NTR course. I kept with the design of the original assets and just added in the animation. The stinger is based on the original chat stinger animation but the intro in a design thought up by Luisa

Stinger:

Intro:

There was a few problems with the final animation draft. I now know you can import PSD files into After Effects to create better video quality.
