Scratch Day 6: Scenes

The stage has the ability, like the sprites, to change based on what makes sense in the project. Essentially the stage is another type of sprite that can't be moved while it is presented, because its movement changes the feel of the project. I initialized the sprite in the scene by having Scratch Cat give a tour of her house. This made changing the stage easy as she went though each room. Scenes change in skits you may present during class, in plays, in movies, in books, they change everywhere in the artistic world, so its great that scratch allows you to do the same thing to make a realistic story. One person used backdrops as if they were at a concert with a strobe light-like feel. They switched the backdrops back and forth really quickly. Another person used it to give a tour of different parts of the world, like the moon and the beach. Another changed the scene as the sprite moved around the screen, which is how I used my project. The sprite had an effect on how the scene would go. Another person changed the scene based on what the sprite was saying. When a penguin starting talking about food, the backdrop changed to a gingerbread house. Another person changed the scene by starting with a conversation between a crab and a dragon. The scene changed when the dragon wanted to show the crab he could fly so they went to the dragon's house. This use of scene change added great effect to the project.
