In our narrative unit, we developed our storytelling skills by exploring fiction and communicating stories through digital art and animations. The main focus of this unit was learning how to tell a story visually. In order to do this, we used equipment such as Wacom tablets, and various programs. Some of the programs we used were Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe After Effects, Avid Protools, and Dragonframe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a person who is very passionate about stories and storytelling in general, this unit was very valuable to me because I got to learn how to tell my own stories in various formats. I got to express myself a lot and I gained a lot of knowledge about how to animate in Photoshop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For this assignment, we had to get into teams of three and create an animation that told a story. The story my team came up with is about someone who learns how to stop running away from their fears and learns how to face them instead. The animation was done in Adobe Photoshop and the editing was done in Adobe After Effects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
