4 – ETERNAL MOTION
Create TWO characters with at least 10 different mobile individual components and animate each component individually using mathematical functions, counters, angles and repeat loops. Animate the individual components of the characters in a setting that contextualizes the motion. Analyze these parts and explore their advanced geometric properties, such as the pivotal center. The biggest challenge: animate each one of them interactively.
DO NOT USE ILLUSTRATOR: IT IS NOT YOUR FRIEND in this project.
You must use transparent PNGs.
Study the shapes individually. Use different canvases to create them as separate quadrants. The point of this assignment is to animate your characters eternally using MATH.
In this particular semester, FALL 2023, due to the hurricane disruptions and closures, we will NOT be working on the OOP Game, BUT we will be talking about particles and objects.
YOU must integrate particles into your Eternal Motion project, on top of the mathematically and interactively controlled puppets.
