Flip Book Assignment

For you last assignment you are to create a flipbook. The purpose of this assignment is to evolve a concept over several frames. Your evolution of an idea should tell a story of some kind of morphing from one image into another similar to a caterpillar into a butterfly.

You may use any of the three software programs you have learned in DSDG 83, or any combination of all three.

Once you have your concept for the project chosen, you are to make several thumbnail drawings our ideas before starting your project. You should also use the Internet for research to find out how best to make your project as well.

The project will be due at the same time as your final.
