Class Description

In this lecture we’ll review what some of the most common emojis mean, where to find them on your smartphone keyboard, and when to use them. We’ll also cover how to create an avatar using Bitmoji and Memoji. GIFs and Memes are additional ways to add some color to your communications, so we’ll demonstrate where to find and create those as well!
