Step Up My First Week-Jarena

The first couple days went well I’m getting the hang of everything. The hardest thing was understanding animate but once you do it is pretty easy. I’m still trying to get used to waking up early, otherwise everything is going smooth.

 

My Step up Week 1

My first week of work at Asian Media Access was successful. I learned how to use different websites to create videos and postcards about important topics. Storybird is an much easier website than Animkaer. Animaker was a more difficult website, I’m still confused on how to do certain things but it is fun learning about them. I’m excited to learn more this week.

 

Step Up: Week 2 Day 1

Today our project was to introduce our family or friends. We learned how to upload photos and add them into our animaker animations. We did face some technical difficulties, but I think everyone got it by the end of the day. I made a nice 60 second animation about my family members, and it’s good that I’m getting more comfortable and used to Animaker.

 

Step Up Week 2 Day 1

Today I made an Animaker video about my family, I hope it’s not to short. When making the video, I found some cool special effects to use on it. Like the film effect where it looks like your shooting an old movie. I also met some new students, during Zoom, who will also be working with us at Asian Media.

MY FIRST WEEK IN STEP UP !!!!

My first week was pretty complicated but I got the hang of it a little bit. Animaker is not the easiest website to work , I don’t understand how to work it but its very fun to play around with. I am enjoy working with Asia Media Access. It was a struggle waking up everyday early in the morning because Im not really a morning person so it was kind of hard for me to adjust to waking up like that. Other then that Im looking forward to seeing what else we have planned for the rest of this summer.

 

StepUp 2020- First week

This past week has been an interesting experience that varied from day-to-day. It was new and confusing at first and admittedly even a bit now, but as the week progressed it became easier. This year’s internship structure is really different from what was planned earlier this year because of the pandemic, and the way we communicate through zoom rather than face to face. That itself presents its one challenges but I can tell that everyone is trying their best to help make this experience as smooth and beneficial as possible. Learning to use tools like Animaker and Storybird did take some practice along with trial and error but I was able to create some pieces that I am proud of. –Salma Hashi
