Piskel Practice

This week we will be creating our own animated pixel images using Piskel.
The editor can be accessed at www.piskelapp.com
Students can sign in with their school email and password.

Students are creating an image, and duplicating the slides so that they can make small changes.

When all the slides are played together you get an animated effect:

This is the type of program that is easy to learn, but can be tricky to master. Once the students get a little more practice I'll be sure to post some of their creations!

January Mystery Artist Contest

MYSTERY ARTIST OF THE MONTH!
This month's Mystery Artist is......

Happy New Year!

The lead up to the holidays and winter break was a crazy one! Students participated in lots of special activities which was great! This week has been a lot of getting reorganized and tying up lose ends so that we can change gears and start something new. 

As promised, here are some more great examples of the completed Animation Cel projects. The multi-layer concept was not easy, but students were creative and successful!
