Flash animation.

My animation.

Blog #13 My PSA topic.

The message I'm trying to convey is reef bleaching awareness. That when reefs start to die from other chemicals such as a oil or gas from boats as well as the depleting OZONE layer causes the reefs to bleach. In turn, the fish die off rather quickly or they move to a different reef. There are many reefs that are very healthy but for how long will they be healthy? Throughout my message I will show what happens when reefs begin to be bleached and what happens to the fish that inhabit the reef.

A website about what is in a reef. Like the general aspect of it.

This is about how our coral reefs are depleting at an accelerated rate.

This article was about coral bleaching in all parts of the world.

Save Our Fish project pre-test

1. What might contemporary data on fish populations tell us about the health of our marine ecology?
2. What role does the media play in helping shape public attitudes about an issue related to the health of the environment?
3. How can computer animation be used to affect public opinion and practices related to a particular issue such as environmental sustainability?
4. How might a computer animation differ in terms of its impact compared to other media such as live film, print graphics, and audion announcements on radio or through podcasts?

1. Well if our data is accurate then it will tell us that the health of the marine ecology is bad right now.

2. The media can help get the people going on stopping the depletion of our fish and let the fish become well over populated so that it won't hurt the marine ecology.

3.It can be used to influence public opinion about evironmental sustainability.

4. It would have to be broadcasted over a huge audience to have the same effect as the media. But you could make your computer animation available as all forms of media.

My scratch game

My point of my educational product was to talk about being friends with everyone and getting along. And how to not bully others.

Idea for Scratch.

My idea is to create a flash of some sort about safety while skateboarding or longboarding. I will show how to properly fit helmets, protective gear, and show what happens when you use it correctly/incorrectly. I will probably have myself as a sprite within the project talking or using text, and have some other pictures of skaters going down hills.

My Sratch pong game

The biggest challenge for me today was actually making the sprites move in the direction that I wanted them to go. It gets really hard dealing with lots of scripts.
