stop sign Have you checked PowerShool? This is your responsibility! Make sure that the grade you are recieving is the grade you are expecting. If not, then it is probably a good idea to talk to your teacher about why that is. Easy hed 796x398 Technology is not an easy button to be exploited. It is created by humans to aid in a variety of tasks. It must be learned, harnessed and mastered. 

DUE DATES MATTER!

Late Assignments: Assignments submitted past the due date are subject to the following:

  • 10% loss of points (of the overall possible total) per day that the assignment is late.
  • 0% is awarded if an assignment is submitted past the five day mark. The only way an assignment will be graded past this period is if a FULL SIZED Milky Way Midnight , Twix (any kind), or Snickers (Almond), candy bar is surrendered to the teacher. It will cost one candy bar per late assignment, per week past the extended due date. Example: if an assignment is three weeks past the due date, it will cost three candy bars.  
    • This exchange will buy you time. It will not buy you guaranteed success on a project. All rubrics and grading standards still apply
  • All late assignments must be followed up with an email to the teacher

Due Date: October 16

Frame-by-Frame is the most basic form of animation possible. But, "simple" doesn't mean it has to be "boring."

Here's your chance to get creative and make something from nothing.

  1. Create a new folder in your Animation folder and title it "Frame By Frame"
  2. Create three new animations (here are the parameters:)
    1. The animation must be school appropriate - 5pts
    2. The animation must be 640 (Width) pixels by 340 pixels (Height)  - 5 pts
    3. There must be at least 20 frames per animation - 10 pts
    4. The animation must have the following - be creative here. 
      1. A background that has something animated on it: (For example: a mountain scene with moving clouds, birds, smoke, etc) - 10 pts
      2. A foreground that has animation on it (For example: a person walking/riding a bike/riding a pogo stick in front of the mountain) - 10 pts
    5. The finished animations are to be saved as both PSD and GIF (animated) version
