First Animation (with Elephants)

Yes, it’s silly and incredibly primitive and has, as yet, no audio.  But I only got the idea of even trying such an endeavor this morning.  (Being an aging perfectionist, I have to disclose my handicap right at the start.)

The app is called Animation Creation HD.  (Cost for iPad is 1.99 , quite a bit of time with a little frustration thrown in.)

Warning–it’s really easy to delete (repeatedly) everything you have done.  The “undo” button does not work on deleted frames.  Other warning, you are supposed to “pad” for youtube which keeps last frame from being cut.  I didn’t do that right.  (Missing frame is more along the same lines. )

Even so, kind of cool what 1.99 can get you in these hard times.  (Yes, I know, you need the basic computer/digital infrastructure, still it’s pretty amazing.)

  1. You make me think of Dr. Seuss saying, “O the places you will go.”

    Done with your everpresent charm, I really like the simplicity.

      Thanks so much! I’m afraid the simplicity, at this point, has a lot to do with lack of skill, but I find it amazing to do at all. I’m kind of busy with work and willy novel, but I do hope to do something more ambitious soon. Hope all is well. K.


I'd love to hear from you!
