Project 7 Respect For All GIF

      In the previous lab, we learned how to create a simple GIF that can move around for a few seconds. And to continue what we have learned in the previous lab, we will be creating our own GIF for the Respect for All week in this project. This seems like a really easy project since there is no specific objective, and all we have to do is create a respect for all GIF in Photoshop. But in fact,I struggled, since there are no specific objective, there are no guidelines for us either. I really didn't truly understand the meaning of "respect for all". And I had no idea how to create a GIF to express the idea of this phrase. So I had went online to understand what it really means. It turned out to be more related to bullying than I thought, and its mostly about bullying, caring, equality, harassment, and discrimination. And I created my GIF based on these things.
      To create this GIF, I first created a gradient in the background to make it look better. I then used the timeline to create a video timeline for this GIF. In the first frame, I used the custom shape tool to create different kinds to people to show that "we can be different". In the second frame, I used the shape tools to create a balance with two people in each side while it's balanced, which means that "we were all created equally" to show equality. In the third frame, I used the shape tools and the pen tool to make a stronger person bullying a weaker person with a huge stop sign in front of it. This means that "we should stop bullying," and be friends with each other. In the forth frame, I used the pen tool and the custom shape tool to create 2 hands, one trying to help the other and a heart in the middle. This tells us to help people when they need you. And in the last frame, I used the custom shape tools and the pen tool to create a man bowing to different types of people. This frame symbolize that we should respect everyone even if they are different.
