Student Sheet Activity 7: Camera Angles and Shifting Behaviour

Objectives: Shift camera perspective, use close-by and far away, code a shift in behaviour using pages.

Directions: You have just looked at code and techniques for creating dramatic effects and for crafting changes in behaviour within a character. Now it’s time to practice.

To Do Check List:

• Consider the three things you talked about during today’s lesson:

  • close-by and far away

  • camera angles

  • and pages.

• Open up one of your games and add in some code to shift the camera to first person, maybe by holding the space bar

• Now add or change one of your characters so that it changes behaviours based on what they are doing in your game world:

  • Maybe make your character switch to page 2 when it bumps into an apple

  • Then on page 2 write some code that changes the colour of your character

  • Try out other ways of changing and switching pages
