GIF of me throwing: Shot Put, Discus, Hammer, Javelin, & Weight Throw
This design assignment was supposed to be about a movie poster but I wanted to make it more personal so I changed it a tad. Since I am Mr. UMW, I used videos of me throwing for the UMW Track Team rather than a movie.
I initially uploaded nine videos to GIPHY and then edited them down to 4 seconds long to transform them into a GIF. Once I had the GIFs I downloaded them to my phone and used an app called Cinepic. But I wasn’t done yet. The app only makes everything into a video so I had to upload my GIF Mosaic to GIPHY again and transform it into a GIF. This one took me all day to try and find the right tools. Now that I know what to do I can easily make another one in no time. Feel free to click on the photo gallery for a quick tutorial on how to make your own GIF Mosaic:
