Storyboard TDT1

Scene 1 So this is Richard and welcome to the second project. In this project, you’ll be making a sprite, like the little rotating fuzzy ball shown here, move around the screen, bounce off walls, and stop and change direction. You won’t be able to do complex animations like this using the timeline, so you will have to use ActionScript to do this project. The first challenge will be to get your sprite to move in a straight line from Point A to Point B. You’ll have to figure out how to make it move. Consider this analogy:

Scene 2 It’s Sunday morning, and I’ve just gotten some cash from an ATM at my neighborhood grocery. Now I want to go get some breakfast at my favorite coffee shop.

Scene 3 I am here

Scene 4 I’m going to walk by Dunkin Donuts.

Scene 5 I’m going to walk by Starbucks.

Scene 6 Which places me here: almost to the store.

Scene 7 And then I arrive.

Scene 8 So in the process of the morning, I moved from point A...

Scene 8b... to point B. And it took 9 minutes.

Closing... So based on this, what do you think you need to know to get your sprite from point A to point B on the screen? We’ll be talking about this more, but go ahead and visit Discussion 1 in the forum to tell us what you think now.
