InchBandaid

Overview
You may ask yourself, 'What is an inchbandaid?', and I'll tell you it's an inchworm that looks like a bandaid. This last week in e-Com we were to create an inchworm in Photoshop, transfer it to Adobe After Effects, there we would learn how to use the 'Pin' tool to make it move.
It was easy to accomplish making an inchworm in Photoshop and I admit that it took me some tie to get used to using it like a puppet in Adobe After Effects. At first it took me a while to understand how to move it correctly and effectively but in the end this is the result:


What I Learned
First and foremost I learned how to turn a normal looking inchworm into a bandaid. Second I learned how to use the 'Pin' tool in After Effects to make it move. we were to put 6 pins on the worm in total then as the video went on we would move the points that controlled to worm to make it look like it was inching across the screen.

How it Went
Overall, I think my project went really well. The worm inched across the screen and left, all while looking like a bandaid. If I was to do this again I would definitely try to improve the worm in looks but there than that it all went well, except for the few times in the animation that the worm overlapped itself.
