Flying in the Sky

September 17th, 2019

 

Actually this week I am a little bit confused about what I need to do. We did a lot of random coding and paintbrush in the class. I kind of having a sense of how to make them and start to know what does each coding number means.

When I was thinking about the idea of the project this week, I opened the Night Sky app by accident. The galaxy looks beautiful and mysterious. And the meteor reminds me of the paintbrush we learned in the class. So it makes me had the idea of this project. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I made a black background and kept the color of the meteor as light white and used the paintbrush. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then, I use random to make the effect of blinking stars, but I have a problem to made it disappeared.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The flying object draw by mouse I want it looks outsold from the background, I used yellow. I changed the value of the square and map the color from yellow to pink.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The lights of the stars in the galaxy are in a light color. I like the color of purple which makes the galaxy looks more mysterious. I was having trouble to find the right number for purple, so made a blue ellipse and made a pink ellipse to mix the color, it shows a purple ellipse. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When I finished coding it I realized it looks like galaxy at the begging and when it continues random and the mouse continues drawing, it became a mess. So, I am wondering if there is a way to pause the effect and show up at the time I want?
