The GFX Club
============
The GFX club is involved in digitally altering images, morphing, and
animating computer graphics. With approximately 14 members we plan to work on
many projects that involve computer graphics in video. A major project is the
Glenforest 25th year anniversary. A video will probably be made, so some
special effects are on the drawing boards. One idea is to have a morph from
one principal to another, going from the very first one at this school through
to our present one, Dr. Brown. Working on the morphing idea, a transition
showing hair styles from the 1960's to the 1990's is a possibility. Another
idea is to show a student, such as a valedictorian, maturing by using morphing
techniques. Yearbook covers from all of the years of Glenforest could be
shown, morphing from one to another. One project we are currently working on
is the creation of a REAL gryphon. Pictures of lions and eagles have been
scanned in and are being digitally combined and altered to create the animal.
Plans for Halloween include creating images of "scary" things. How about a two
headed donkey? How about an entirely new species? April fools could be provide
other fun projects. By altering reality, anything is possible. Meetings aren't
held regularity, but members can usually be found in the AV room, working on
something neat! Jurassic Park II is on the drawing boards.
