Animations
Next term I’d like you to start working with video. Watch the first half of first animation to get an idea of how we can do stop motion animation.
And, I’ve put this 3D animation in because I think it is a good example of social activism.
Year 10 Skateboard Game
We need a few more assets before you can start coding your skateboard game.
Create a movie clip (F8) and call it background.
Then create some assets inside the movie clip. These assets will be things that your skateboarder might hit like rocks, cars, trees, furry animals, people, babies etc…..Each asset that you create must be a graphic. So for example, if you create a rock then press F8 to make it a graphic.
So what you will have is a series of graphics inside a movie clip.
Try and create as many things that your skater could hit as possible. Your skater might also have to avoid birds flying at him/her or all sorts of strange objects.
You should draw around a dozen things that could hit your skater.
