Rebecca Edwards created a pixel animation experiment to practice animation techniques for a future game project. She used pencil and eraser tools to draw frames of blinking eyes in an anime style, adding color and shading over multiple frames. She adjusted the timing of each frame to make the blinking look realistic. For her game, she created a grid for a match-3 puzzle scenario and duplicated image tiles to fill the board. She plans to add background, icons, animation, and music in future iterations. Through testing her animation, she found errors to correct by duplicating and hiding assets between slides. For her final project, she will focus on asset size, thorough testing, and ensuring theme consistency between visuals and music.
Level 5
The document provides an overview of tools and considerations for making games, including:
- 2D art is easier and faster than 3D but 3D looks better, though it requires modeling, animating, and texturing.

Magazine task 8
1) The document describes the steps taken to recreate a Total Film magazine using Adobe programs like Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. It involves creating elements like the masthead in Illustrator, inserting them into InDesign along with photos taken and images found online.
2) Background images were edited in Photoshop using selection tools, filters and adjustments to match the original magazine. Photos of a subject were also edited in Photoshop to resemble Sherlock before placing in InDesign.
3) The process is evaluated with strengths like similar fonts used and background matching the original, and weaknesses like low quality images and subject not resembling Sherlock closely. Solutions to issues are also suggested.
Edit
I chose a sword design for my game and drew it by hand, then scanned and edited it digitally to add detail and refine lines. I saved the scanned image and opened it in Pixlr to trace using a digital sketchpad and computer. Using tools in Pixlr, I outlined the sword with a pencil tool and added color to the blade in gray to represent steel and the black handle to complement it. The sword design is unique and imagined, unlike any seen before.

2. research done
Here are the key points I would highlight in evaluating the research:
- The product research provided useful examples and inspiration for game design ideas. However, it was challenging to come up with truly original concepts.
- The online survey allowed me to gather feedback from a large sample size, giving insights into player demographics, preferences, and play habits. However, response rates for online surveys tend to be low.
- Interviews provided more in-depth perspectives than surveys, but were limited by only a small number of participants.
- The survey was distributed online via social media, allowing wide reach but reliance on voluntary participation. This led to a disadvantage of a potentially low response rate.
- Overall, triangulating

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
