Homework assignment

The current assignment in my Photoshop class was to do an animation. We had to put everything together in one document, (320 x 240 pixels, 72 ppi) with layers for all the frames. Then we edited it in Image Ready to get the animation frames set. Then we exported it to Quicktime.
I had originally planned to do something with the tigers at the zoo, and that was the main reason for yesterday's trip. But... When I was in the tropics trail the female White-Cheeked Gibbon was being pretty active so I ended up taking a bunch of shots of her.
My finished product can be found here:

It's nothing too spectacular, but I'm a comment whore so I'm posting it anyway! :)

Thank you!
See, all that practice using Image Ready to animate .gifs for icons paid off! :)

Well, just because you are a (self proclaimed) "comment whore"

If those photos were taken between 1:30 and 2:00 I was at the Komodo Dragon exhibit just a few steps away.

Sooo close. :)

Sooooo close! I was at the Lemurs at 1:10, and at the Gibbons from 1:18-1:27. If the Red Panda had been on exhibit, you would definitely have caught up with me! (No I'm not that obsessive about time! The EXIF data on my pics told me what time it was! :)

Thank you!
This assignment wasn't as much of a challenge for me as for some other people in the class because I'd already taught myself the basics of Image Ready so that I could make animated icons for myself! Like this one!
