Embedding animations - roly poly baby!

 This is Ms Dohig's example of an animation embedded into a blog .... I admit it is definitely NOT as expert as most of the animations* made by 9LDO learners....for better examples check out some of the learner blogs on our website.

The main thing I learned was the process of embedding a slide deck onto the blog.

The main steps again:

1. Publish the slide deck to the web (File > Publish to the web)

  • Click on 'Embed' and select 'Small'
  • Tick the boxes to start the slide show and replay the slide show
  • Click on 'Publish' to see HTML code
  • Copy the code
2. Back on the blog on a new post

  • change from 'Compose view' to the 'HTML view' using the dropdown menu next to the pencil picture on the top LHS under the title
  • Paste the HTML code into the body of the blog
  • To speed up the slide changes change the number 3000 in the code to 100
  • Change back to 'Compose view' and watch the animation begin!
*Note: as Caden and Ryleigh pointed out - this type of 'animation' is a version of stop motion animation. There are websites that allow you to animate differently.

Next time I make one of these I am determined to include a background and tell a story ... the roly poly baby makes me dizzy.
