Creating a GIF for your Google Classroom

This year I plan to use Google Classroom to its fullest. We are starting the year 100% digitally to keep everyone safe and so I am working to ensure that my classroom is completely comprehensible, compelling, and caring* in person and online. 

I have developed a habit of scrolling through the teacher TikTok hashtags lately while playing games or what not. When I stumble upon something I like, I see if I can figure it out/duplicate it/access it. Today it was the Google Classroom Banner Gif. 

You can see the original TikTok linked in the Resources and Credits section^, but I must give thanks to @msgella for this amazing tutorial. 

steps
  1. Open a google slides presentation. 
  2. Click "add ons" and "get add ons".
  3. Add the Creator's Studio Add on.
  4. Click "File" and "Page Setup".
  5. Set Custom pixels to 1000 X 250.
  6. Build your Google Classroom.
  7. If you haven't, build your bitmoji.
  8.  Save the poses you want for your GIF banner. 
  9. Put a different Bitmoji pose into each slide. I used 6 slides total.
  10. Open the Creative Studio Add on.
  11. Set the GIF settings for 1600 output width and .5 second interval. 
  12. Hit GO
  13. When it renders, a down arrow will appear next to GIF for you to download your banner!
