Assignment - Animaker Project
In this week's discussion, seven types of explainer videos were presented. You will use Animaker to create
an animated explainer video. Either this project or the previous one (Genial.ly) must be used in your Web
Site Project. Therefore, select an appropriate topic.

assignment. As with any free account, there are items offered that one can not use. Please be cognizant of
this fact when creating your animation.
