I learnt how to create a character turn and how to animate it on Adobe Photoshop in one of my technical workshop classes at university. I chose Trump as the character to focus on because he featured in the brief that I was working on. This project was very exciting and fun because it was my first time doing this and I was quite nervous at the beginning to start it. I looked at many references of Trump from different media outlets that captured his many angles and focused on his memorable facial features that would make Trump look like, well, Trump.

I did a total of six layers and reflected some of the layers so that it would be easier to finish given the amount of time I had. I had to make sure that when the character turn happened that the different layers would flow together and be consistent.
