Doodle Your View Challenge




I was tagged on a "Doodle Your View" challenge on Twitter the other day. The idea is that you take a picture during the day and then you add drawings on top of the photo to go with it and then post to Twitter with #doodleyourview.  

People were getting super creative with their submissions. Here are a few of the posts:




I was tagged by art teacher Tricia Fuglestad who had an animated element in her view. That inspired me to see if I could animate my doodle and I opted to draw a tablet bag and animated it to drop into the collection box beneath it (see first image/GIF). 

It was super fun to make and I combined several FREE programs to do it (they all do require logging into a Google Account though):

- Canvas to create my doodle overlay
- Google Slides to create the illusion of movement between slides
- Tall Tweets to animate my slideshow into a finished GIF

I made a six minute video overview of the process for anyone who is interested in giving it a try. This would make a fun integrated technology activity in an art classroom!
