Animating Sprites Using Costumes

LO:

To be able to create a simple animation in J2Visual

SC:

I understand the difference between sprites and costumes

I can use costumes in J2Code

My sprites give the impression that they are moving.

You can either continue with your existing file, or create a new one for this lesson.

Choose a sprite from the animated category

I'd recommend you begin with just 2 costumes until you get the hang of it.

More costumes=more work, but maybe more fun!

E.g Make the bat fly, the rocket take off, the boat row.

Extension Task

Create a simple animated story using J2Code.

Some characters might be animated, some not.

Some might speak, some not.

It's your story.

You might want to think about planning it out first on a storyboard.
