I wanted to create an animation which can be used on the social sites for my festival. I thought an animation to advertise my merchandise would be best suited for the social sites. I wanted a quick animation which gave the customer an idea of what merchandise will be available. Below you can see the plan I created for my animation.

I wanted to create the animation in Photoshop because it is good for creating a simple animation. You can see my animation below.

I am happy with this animation and I just wanted something quick and simple to showcase my merchandise. I felt like it needed to be quick because you don’t want the viewer to lose interest.

To create the animation I used the Timeline tool in Photoshop. I then started with the frames needed to showcase each piece of merchandise. To get the fading effect I used the Tween tool which can be seen below.

I varied with the amount of frames added on the Tween when it came to switching merchandise colours and switching to a different item of clothing. When it was switching the colours of the t-shirt I used less frames to speed up the animation and quickly showcase the different colours. I also used different delay speeds on some of the frames to vary when the animation needed to slow down and show something or speed up to the next item.
