Squash and Stretch 
For this bouncy ball animation I used Adobe Photoshop to create the original layers of the ball. I then created an animation using the many different layers I had created. By squashing the ball at the very bottom and stretching the ball as it goes down creates the feeling of a cartoon ball. Adjusting the time created a better more "cartoonish" feel. I learned that when creating the layers you must apply the background to all the layers and not just one.

Graphic Design is all around us, it is a part of life.

New Index Page

This is my brand new and improved Index Web Page! It was very easy and uncomplicated compared to some other projects I've completed this year. It was made using the pre-made Grid templates within Dreamweaver. Once I had selected the template, I just had to add in my content and colors and it was finished! Using the template was very helpful because it came already equipped with all of the coding and css, as well as responsiveness on multiple devices. One of the downsides was the inability to customize and design the layout of the page, but with the page being so easy to put together with the templates, the pros of it simply outweighed the cons. I can imagine that professional web designers would use more and more templates such as this one because it is so easy to fill in. All of the coding has been worked out and there are zero to no bugs with the code. All in all, this was another very successful project completed on schedule!
