Experimenting with GIFs

For this experiment I took six photos to start off and then I went through the process of Creating the GIF. These are the six original photos.

-The process

  1. Upload your images to Photoshop.
  2. Open up the Timeline window.
  3. In the Timeline window, click “Create Frame Animation.”
  4. Create a new layer for each new frame.
  5. Open the same menu icon on the right, and choose “Make Frames From Layers.”
  6. Under each frame, select how long it should appear for before switching to the next frame.
  7. At the bottom of the toolbar, select how many times you’d like it to loop.
  8. Preview your GIF by pressing the play icon.
  9. Save and Export Your GIF.

After following the process the final GIF I was left with looks like this. I feel it shows variation and similarities of keyboards, monitors and the mouse, which is the bases of the project I will be working towards.
