Animación sencilla para principiantes con Keynote en iPad (parte 1)

In this one-session 45-minute class, students will learn how to create a simple animated scene using the free Apple Keynote app. This class is geared towards students who have never used Keynote before or who have experience with Keynote and would like to improve their skills and learn new tricks to create animations. Students will learn about some of the different features in the Keynote app while following the teacher to develop an animated animal habitat scene. Please note that although Keynote is an app that is primarily used to make presentations, it also has many creative features that will let you design cool animated effects!

In this class, students will learn how to:
1) Begin a new Keynote project.
2) Set up a colored slide background.
3) Add, format, and arrange shapes to design a landscape background.
4) Add and format animal shapes.
5) Learn how to animate animal shapes to move in your scene.
6) Add a custom path for an animal or object (if time).
7) Save and share their animated project as a video clip.

Students will share their finished animated project with the class (if time) and will reflect on what they learned, their strengths, and what they would like to learn or improve in their next animation. 

Please note that this class will be taught on an iPad. If you would like to learn how to create these animations using Keynote on a Mac computer, the steps are slightly different. Please contact me and we can arrange a time for a personalized private class using Keynote on the Mac computer.

For this class, your student will need:
*An iPad and the most recent free Apple Keynote app downloaded in advance onto their iPad:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/keynote/id361285480
*Note: please download the app 24 hours in advance to avoid difficulties on the day of the class.
*A separate computer or screen (not the iPad they are using for their animation project) to watch the lesson.

I have used the Apple Keynote app to create animations on my iPad for many years and use it frequently to make informative and fun videos for lessons and for myself. I have also worked with many students teaching them how to use this powerful, creative, and fun app to create animated videos. I would love to share what I have learned with new students so they can produce their own amazing animations.

***This class is also a part of my 4-week Flex Class "Introduction to Animation on the iPad using Keynote." For students in a different time zone, this Flex Class would allow your student to work through the animation lessons at their own pace at a time convenient for them.
