I have rarely made animations since GoAnimate changed the templates. It was easy to quickly type in some dialogue with standard backgrounds and limited action choices.
This is not the ideal way to work and does not take advantage of the rich alternatives available. In fact, it is sort of like limiting oneself to survey research - using one of 2 or 3 different surveys. Richer designs might yield richer results both in animation and surveys. Even my minor efforts in animation are likely to benefit from an improved planning process. Since I'm trying to think in more than one component (dialogue + action), I think a storyboard rather than a simple script, is the way to go. So my plan for ensuing posts is to describe my storyboarding efforts for the next episode of Qualitative Ninja Girl. Then I am going to experiment with applying the same process to simple research design. My first candidate is the Microsoft Office program Power Point. I am going to use the slide sorter view. I'll also look at Mac's IWork presentation software Keynote. And then I will explore Prezi - which has always seemed like a neat idea but rarely works well for me.

3D avatars are digital representations of individuals or characters created using three-dimensional modeling techniques. These avatars find applications in various fields such as gaming, virtual reality, animation, and virtual meetings. They offer a more immersive and interactive experience compared to traditional 2D avatars, allowing users to personalize their digital presence and interactions. With advancements in technology, 3D avatars continue to evolve, becoming more lifelike and customizable, enabling users to express themselves creatively and engage in virtual environments with greater realism.
