Final project proposal (Final draft)

For my final project, I will use Processing to create an interactive version of the story of Little Red Riding Hood. I will use images that I have drawn to illustrate the story and use Processing to progress through the story by having the viewer perform certain tasks, such as clicking a series of buttons on screen, aligning objects, pressing computer keys, and possibly frame differencing from the camera. Processing may also be used to add effects to the illustrations, for example if a scene took place in a dark forest, I would apply a tint over the illustration so that the viewer would use the mouse as a flashlight so that they could see what was happening and read the directions. I would like to have background music playing during the entire program, but I may merely have sound as a reaction from some of the other interactions.

Final project proposal (rough draft)

For my final project, I was planning to use Processing to create an interactive story. I would use images that I had drawn to illustrate the story and use Processing to progress through the story by having the viewer perform certain tasks, such as clicking a series of buttons or other tasks. Processing would also be used to add effects to the illustrations, for example if a scene took place in a dark forest, I would apply a tint over the illustration so that the viewer would use the mouse as a flashlight so that they could see what was happening and read the directions.
