PE7_Creaza



I chose to work with Creaza. Creaza is a media creation tool that provides the user with tools to make movies, cartoons, audio projects, or mind maps. I chose to use the cartoon creating tool. The cartoon tool allows the user to choose from pre-made backgrounds, characters actions, and objects to tell a story. Creaza is a web based tool that enables the user to accomplish creative story telling anywhere that they can find an internet connection. This tool combines professionally made content with the user generated content to produce a unique piece aimed at telling a story. The user has a lot of choices when it comes to the desired style of the cartoon. There are themes varied from historic, classic, crazy or manga. Creaza reguires signing up for an account with a username or password. Once you have created an account you can choose your theme and begin creating your cartoon. After you have chosen your theme you will see that the cartoon editor window has a tool bar at the top and content choices on the right. I started by clicking on the backgrounds tab and dragging and dropping a back ground on the empty slide in the center of the editor. If you change your mind about the background choice you can simply drag and drop another background over top of your current background and the new one will replace it. Once you have chosen a background you can click on the characters tab and add a character to your cartoon.
