First of 8 four day weeks and this year I get all 8 (often vacation falls on the first of them). It’s like a secret Sabbath 😉
Yesterday I distracted w/ a D2L webinar about “motion infographics,” a.k.a. animated GIFS — that thing I want to do w/ math concepts. Well, they used Maya and Adobe products — and I’m pretty sure the audience were, like me, not pro developers w/ skills w/ those tools. Questions included “is there a free trial?” and no, open source options weren’t mentioned. It happened while I was on vacation — and I am pretty sure it was set up so no, people couldn’t chat with *each other* and share that kind of info in backchat.
A quick Google search nets me a DS106 page about creating animated GIFS w/ open source stuff. I already know that DS106 is a Thing that OER People are Into. DS stands for Digital Storytelling… and … a “how to do a mask” 🙂 🙂 http://www.screencast.com/t/14ub10pfSl
Now to *make* 🙂
