Recently I’ve mainly been focusing on redesigning a PowerPoint presentation that is presented to faculty to show statistics on hiring a diverse workforce.

For the Advanced Training on Motion Graphics I animated mock course graphics. In part 1 of the training I fixed a broken After Effects file with malfunctioning effects, and in the second part I used the puppet and mesh tools in After Effects to make an animated title card for a course.

I circled back to a basic animation training because I had never done a Photoshop-based animation before, so this was interesting! I tried to animate some little stars sparkling, but it went a little wonky. I think if I were to spend more time on this project I would make my lines a little thicker and perhaps also play around with how to make this animation a smooth loop.

This week I’ve mainly been working on the PHY303K animated intro. Since last week I’ve mostly been getting feedback, shortening each video scene, and smoothing out transitions. The intro has now been approved, and here is the final version (without audio): https://utexas.box.com/s/2kpzbg1z50w9zsg3hu3gwb51bgn33b7i

I’ve also been continuing to work on the Save the Date ticket for the STA Presentation, which is a presentation that LAITS puts on to showcase STA work. I started mainly focusing on text layouts, and eventually I came up with this one:
After talking with Maddy, I realized that the functionality of a vertical ticket might be hard to view on a computer screen because of its orientation.
From there I used my idea of even spacing of texts from left to right, as well as further trying out colors and fonts, and then made these versions:

First week back from winter break! I helped make the PHY 303E course materials my last work week in December, and now I’m mainly focusing on the animated intro for the class that will show before lecture segments.

Today I started working on the little Save the Date ticket for the STA Presentation, which is a presentation that LAITS puts on to showcase STA work. Here I just started testing out text placements and different ways of going about it, and next I’ll experiment more with fonts, colors, and other visual things.

I’ve been working on a new UTFC slideshow, this time on spices and seasonings! Attached below is only a draft 1, hasn’t yet been approved. I had trouble finding a few images, one of which was for the elusive “la vinaigrette”, so I just have a placeholder picture in for that one.
