Reflection

I thoroughly enjoyed the creative journey of crafting a visual novel or comic and bringing it to life through animation. My familiarity with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop from previous projects proved immensely beneficial, significantly reducing the time required for creation.

One notable challenge I encountered during the process was ensuring the precise alignment of the shapes. After exporting the artboards to Photoshop, I noticed the presence of unwanted white areas along the edges, which required additional time and effort to align properly and re-upload.

Nonetheless, this project let me understand aligning elements and shapes precisely to the edges, is very important before exporting. Additionally, I gained practical knowledge in creating animated GIFs within Photoshop, further expanding my skill set.
