For this Project I decided to make my animation about the emotion Blissfulness. Ever since Ive been in California life has been hectic but what has continuously grounded me is going on bike rides in the morning. When I do I feel a sense of peace, hope and getting out and moving my body in the sun makes me feel very grateful for life and connected to God. it puts me inn a state of Blissfulness.
My piece tells the story of a woman who, on a dark and rainy night, cries out to God, longing to feel the presence of the Holy Spirit and reconnect with herself. By morning, her heart is touched, and her worries have transformed into sweet surrender. I combined five audio samples, four beats and one original song titled “Alter Call,” performed by my cousin Jasmine Tiamfook and written by me. I used sound effects to create an atmospheric mood and blend the rain with the vocals. The most challenging part was syncing the audio with the video in Premiere Pro, which I overcame by using time stamps and carefully aligning each sound with patience.
Software & Language : Sublime Text & Github + HTML and CSS
I kept the Choose your Adventure concept while adding another option to become cheese. It was just something random that came into my mind so I made it an option. For my images I sourced them from Wikimedia Commons. I enjoyed exploring how to code and create my own website!
For my first animation/gif I made a ball bouncing off of a wall. For my next edit I want to add a background and clean up the animation. I was inspired by all the dogs that walk around my neighborhood.
