Today we are going to learn how to make our own Sprites (and Backdrops) in Scratch. If you miss today's class, you can watch all the videos under "Paint Editor Tips" on the Scratch Help page to show you what do do (Scratch Help Videos). Don't be afraid to experiment!
We are going to create a Sprite using vector graphics.
We will see how many of these we can learn:
- the difference between a bitmap and a vector graphic
- how to draw vector shapes - circle, rectangle
- how to select an image
- how to undo a mistake
- how to reshape - and add and delete control points
- how to fill (watch out that your image must be closed!)
- how to draw freehand shapes (with the pencil)
- how to smooth freehand shapes
- how to group different parts of a drawing together, and then un-group
- how to use layers
- how to change the line width
- how to flip and image
- how to zoom in and out
- how to copy part of an image
- how to delete in vector mode
- different ways to select the colour - grid, continuous, dropper
