About Me

Hi! My name is Erin Johnson. I'm a freshman at Olathe Northwest. Right now I am in a program called e-Communication, where you learn graphic design, animation, film, and web.

Outside of school I do dance and track. My hobbies are drawing and some photography. I have taken photography and animation classes outside of e-Comm. I hope to have a job as a graphic designer in the future.

Instead, I had to settle for only showing a girl checking out

The font should also look like handwriting - it will make the animation look better. After making the font layer, 'duplicate' it in a new layer and make the original text layer not shown.  You will end up with a file that looks like this. Step 2. Now, duplicate the copy of the original text layer (you will need to make a lot of copies in this project). Once you've made the copy, erase a little bit of the last letter off. Like this. Continue to make copies and delete a little bit off of each letter until your file is blank. Remember to make the previous layer not visible each time you make a n

This is my first animation in PhotoShop. It's of a bouncing ball. With this animation I mostly learned how to use squash and stretch to make an animation look more realistic. The most difficult part for me was getting used to the different tools in photoshop.
