My Animated .gif
My first efforts in developing my own animated .gif was coming up with a rocket surprise ending. The techniques applied and story I created was show how my rocket went literally everywhere. As you can see in my gif, each scene takes place in a different location, with the final destination being Mars, where unfortunately my rocket is blown up by an enemy alien. I used multiple frames that I tweened in order to get my rocket to move from one place to another. The timing of my gif was an important factor because it has to look like my gif flows, and that my rocket is really moving.

School Themed Girl's Basketball GIF |
My school themed gif I chose was girl's basketball .
I decided on this school theme because I am on the Varsity girls basketball team finding it important to inform the female student population about opportunities to join, in my opinion, the best girl's sports team on campus.
My animated gif message was to let girls know that they have a chance to join the basketball team if they are interested in building new and strong relationships, while playing basketball.
I believe the intended audience is any girl who'd like to play basketball at Colony, and they will respond to my animation because it is comical and animated enough to interest them while very informative.
I sent the gif to my coach Joshua Padilla.
What I would do differently with my next project would be to add some more specific details so that my target audience will be even more informed than they are now.
