Animation

Today :) I'll just show You my first animation. It's not very
impressive, but it just show how stuff works :D
I made it using stop-motion method (drawing every single cell, taking photos and play them fast). In animation worldas we know it several different method of animations are used.
First one is the one which I already showed You :)

Second one - Puppets! There's a person or two behind every puppet. These people are moving arms, legs, mouth, eyes, etc and also making puppets speak! :)

Cut-out paper animation;

Plasticine - All characters are made from plasticine, and moved by ppl hands :) It takes a bit from stop-motion animation, where pictures are taken every tiny move of a character.

3D animation - these are made on computers :) by many different programs cooperating. Like audio, 3d modelling, photo editing and also programming languages :D

Combined - it uses various techniques of animation combined :)

Compare, again ...

Search engines and blogs

As a part of a course I need to show my ability to find information online. That's why we use these little web sites called search engines.
Google.
First one that I'll introduce here is our popular google. Now.. why is it good? Because they use worldwide placed fast servers . They expect milions users every single day so they are ready for that and make us happy getting our answers fast and satisfying.
Of course web is full of many different search engines i.e. : Bing.com, Ask.com, Yahoo.com ;) Main difference is that they are not as POPULAR as google... Some of them may be a little bit slower or wouldn't give as many search results as google though.

Tip of a day: don't use Google every time or you'll make other search engines sad when their servers become useless and lonely :)

Blogger and others :D

Blogs provide latest news on particular subject but in most cases they are used as a online personal diary. Blogger website cooperates with HTML code ( so you have opportunity to check out how html does look like) It also works a little bit like Iweb hehe.. You won't have to have any html knowledge as its fully automated and you just write your thoughts using one-click shortcuts.
It also allows us to upload movies, music and photos.
As a summary: blogger is the most customizable blogging website available.

And what's most important, that all is free!! ;) enjoy

PhotoSharing and VideoSharing To :P

Hmm...
Sharing our colection of music, videos, pic with world (and much more) is one of the most popular features of web nowadays ;) Actually all "informaton" transfers is very important for us so we expect it to work as smoothly as possible. The Web gives us so many ways to make it work nicely. How? Just use Blogger, RapidShare, MySpace, YouTube, Vimeo, Google, etc.
One choose the most conviniet way of sharing and socializing with others by choosing particular portals.
The ones I'm using are:
videos n music - Youtube.com (http://www.youtube.com/user/Malw3k) or Wrzuta.pl;
photos and friends - nasza-klasa.pl (portal used for finding ppl from ur old classes and schools:) );
RapidShare - for file sharing.
Or if I'm just looking for THAT PARTICULAR ONE IMAGE I use google images tab ;P


Today I'm going to compare 2 diffrent video sharing portals.
I choose YouTube.com and Vimeo.com.
Here on both main pages we have similar options like: search, best videos or most viewed videos. Also SAME hahaha flash adverts ;)
Someting about differences: they use different players, layouts n colours.

NO bad, no bad, each one offers full HD quality and full screen display.
I love YouTube, but... :( I have to admit that Vimeo uploaded videos can have unlimited length :) where on YT we have only 10 mins available.. I know this is so sad coz it is most popular video sharing site all over the world :D but what we can do?? Move or enjoy what God (or Google) already gave us ;)

Iweb O.o

Today we experienced a new adventure, this time with an application called Iweb. Again dead easy programme used for creation of simple web pages. It work in the same way as this Blog :P It's using simple interface with some different options, i.e. background color, font boldess, etc. So what it does is it just transtales clicks into HTML. easy, BUT... didn't have much options I used to use. I think its a for basic home user or for webmastering first contact. U won't see how html really works bcoz it won't show u its syntax. I have to say that I prefer one I use ages ago or even a Notepad ;]. So I've created a little page on Iweb, just to try n to pass a lesson. Now I know how it works, but it isn't best one for Me :)

eHorror!

Soo.. this day was the first time I sat in front of Mac (I won't call it "computer" ;D ).

These little evil n tricky machines, absolutely can't work well with students.
In my whole short life, always used to try avoid them as much as possible. Sometimes even I haven't visited my buddies as their homes bwahahah ];->
But now... anyway, I can't avoid it n just try to accept this FACT... and work 2gether in peace.

On my first day, I got some useful tips about I-stuff. That didn't make me amused tho. Maybe I'm wee bit oldschool but rly prefer software which I use on my luvlyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Dell PC ^^
i.e. PhotoFiltre, GifArt, moviemaker, FruityLoops Studio, eJay, Nero Music Edition.
