Webpages

I made these webpages about me using Adobe Dreamweaver, I learned how to use various HTML tags and CSS styles. Here are some screenshots:

360 Tour of my House

I made this house in SketchUp, I was able to make the basic design really quick, so I added a bunch of extra stuff, such as a patio, driveway, stone pathway, and a Ferrari in the garage.

Doghouse

I made this doghouse in Sketch-up by following blueprints. I used many tools, such as the push and pull tool. I got the dog from the warehouse, but I made the bowl and trees.

Tables and chairs

I made this set of chairs and a table using Sketchup, I used many tools, such as the push pull and follow me tool.

Name animation

Today, I made this in photoshop, it's an animation of my name being "written" in a cursive-ish font. I made it by typing my name, erasing it from right to left, and then reversed the frames. After it's complete, I added a few effects to the words.

So in Photoshop I learned how to make videos using the video timeline. I used ten words that described me and animated them.

Arcs

Ball Animation with Arcs

    In this animation, I used techniques from the first one, but in a different, more realistic way. In the first one, the ball bounced infinitely, which isn't physically possible, so this one looses height with each bounce.

    Another flaw with the first one is that balls very rarely bounce perfectly up and down, so this one moves to the right of the picture as it bounces.

    I used the same animation principles as the first one. I used ease in/ease out as it bounces, the closer it is to the ground, the faster it is.

    Squash and stretch was used to show speed and flexibility in the ball in the same way as last time. A new principle I used was using arcs. Instead of going from point to point, it moves smoothly in an arc. This adds realism and makes the movement seem more natural.

This is a very informative video about using arcs:
