Creating the Umbrella Gif

Gifs has interesting style to them. One must be able to create a pleasing and interesting design that’s short but gets an idea across.

As I was creating a gif, I had all these different ideas, however, I wanted to challenge myself. In order to challenge myself I had someone else give me something to create that I wouldn’t normally create. With that I was given the idea to create an umbrella with rainy weather.

At first it was just still umbrella with moving clouds and rain. After many different looks, ideas and critques, I came up with what is now the final look of the gif.
