The fish we are using & Animation research

                                                                Loggerhead Sea Turtle 


Spotted Eagle Ray




Blacktip Reef Shark

Clownfish


Red Lionfish



Some interactive animations

This first animation is not good but not bad either, i don't think it does much but it successfully 'read my mind' the 3 times i tried it. Though i did get bored after the 3 times i played it, the graphics are a bit rough and bumpy so that it doesn't move smoothly but the effort is good. The colours are bright and eye catching which is what you are looking for in an animation i think. But overall i think it is pretty crap and i wouldn't use it again once is all you need. The graphics are fairly good but not great. READ YOUR MIND!

The second interactive animation i found i think is probably the most ridiculous animation i have ever seen. The overall interaction is a bit pointless, plus its punching bill gates! & i don't know who that is, i just thought it was punching a guy with glasses. Just pointless. The overall animation is okay but i think they could have had more buttons and i think they could have added more interactive things instead of just three. Its basic vector graphics and doesn't look pix-elated from the view you get however the site this animation is on distracts you away from the actual thing you are looking at, the reason for this is that there are alot of other adverts on the site and plus i think anything will distract you away from this animation.

The aquarium project

we have to work in groups and design a animation for the  aquarium for their website, it has to be interactive so that the customers who view the website can interact and press buttons on the animations and find out information about the fish in the aquarium .
we have to work in groups and come up with and idea and then make it in flash and other adobe programmes to make it look professional, the ones whos animation is the best will get it put up on the Plymouth National Marine Aquarium's new website.


Evaluation
The project i feel went ok, not as good as i would have hoped it to be though. The group i was in i felt i couldn't show my full potential as i .
