What you need to do with your research...Animation Presentation

ANIMATION PRESENTATION – 10.1

You need to present all the research you have been doing in one place and this will mean you can pass Unit 10, Task 1. You also need to give a presentation to the class as a part of your BTEC for the unit called ‘Communication Techniques for Creative Media Production’. This will help you to pass Unit 2, tasks 1,2,3 and 4.

You need to create and deliver a powerpoint presentation on Animation to include techniques (processes), Key Animators and Animation Studios.

You will then be asked to give some of the presentation to Miss. This will be about 5 mins worth. You will be given a sheet showing you the criteria for giving the presentation later.

 

You need to include the following:

24/6 Start timeline/online research output ADD a timeline and ANIMATORS* Includes own cartoon history	Continue work 1.    Research lesson 1 2.  Put on powerpoint Lesson 2
1/7 timeline/online research output ADD TECHNIQUES/Devices*	Continue work 1.    Research lesson 1 2.    Put on powerpoint Lesson 2
8/7 timeline/online research output ADD STUDIOS*	Continue work 1.    Research lesson 1 2.    Put on powerpoint Lesson 2
15/7 Give Presentations	Give Presentations part 2

Please use the software to exploit the information you are covering. This means include VIDEO and examples as you can import these into powerpoint.

Miss will show you how to use ‘videodownload helper’ on Firefox to get any video you might need. We can also clip, crop and shorten video – just ask how.
