Extra Credit 2

ANIMATION TECHNIQUE PRESENTATION

For this extra credit assignment, you will need to build a presentation on a technique that you plan to use for your animation project.  This should not be a power point, but an actual "demo" of how to do such-and-such using the software program.  You can use any Adobe program we have used this semester to demonstrate your technique, but remember, you must be using it in your animation project.  This demo should take between 5 and 15 minutes; do not go over the time limit.

In total, this presentation will count for up to 5pts towards your total reading grade.  This is approximately enough to raise your reading score 2/3 of a letter grade, i.e. B- to B+.  These points are broken down as follows:
3pts - Adequate demo lasting 5-15 minutes
1pts - Providing handout with step by step instructions for people to follow along
1pts - Providing an example file for people to use during or after the demo

These presentations will only be available on April 9th and 11th with no more than 8 presentations each day.  You must email me your presentation topic and preferred day by Friday, April 6th.  Topics and days will be awarded on a first emailed first served basis.  You will not be able to do a presentation on a topic that someone else has already emailed me about.  Topics could be almost anything, but I can also recommend a few: particle effects in After Effects, batch image processing in Photoshop, and using the puppet warp tool in After Effects.
