Midterm!

For my project I made the touching story of a man and his ghost dog wherein nothing substantial happens!  Challenges included figuring out how to put eases on classic tweens and not figuring out how to make the ghost dog's tongue not look awful.  I basically used all of the drawing tools (rectangle tool, oval tool, pencil, paintbrush etc) including the pen.  I made a heck of a lot of tweens since every scene the dog is in I made it fade in and out.  I used a custon ease for the scene where the dog is running to make it seem a little more ghostlike.  It was really hard to use the motion editor since my screen is so small compared to the ones at school.  I also cleverly(lazily) used the box from project 4 to make the ground in scene 3.  The classic tween was appropriate to use on the heart since I wanted the beat to go slow out then fast in which I cannot do with a motion tween.  A motion tween of my choice was all the tweens to make the ghost dog fade in and out!

I made the clouds using the oval tool and stipple stroke type then deleted all the strokes inside the cloud shape.  For the frame by frame animation parts I used the pencil or paintbrush tool with the onion skin on then bucket filled every frame with white afterwards.  It's a lot easier for me to do frame by frame animation at home since I have a drawing tablet.

I had a lot of hex codes since color scheme designer also gives hex codes for different shades of the same hue so get ready for a paste bomb (I didn't end up using all of them but I did use a lot)
