Morgan Kaschak Final Projects

If I were a Star Wars Story: Now that Disney has purchased the rights to Star Wars they intend on releasing a new Star Wars movie every year. What will these Star Wars movies be about? To develop some possibilities I have recreated the opening crawl from Return of the Jedi and every ten seconds words are replaced to create a new story. You're welcome Disney! https://thimbleprojects.org/mkaschak/55271

If I were a Time Traveller: Aside from the butterfly effect, time travel would be pretty great. To represent time travel, here is a clock with the blue lines traveling to different times. The red circle has pods going to these times. On the bottom right are the destination dates. Eventually the time lines fill the clock showing how time and space are interwoven. Safe travels! https://thimbleprojects.org/mkaschak/55269

If I were a New Yorker Cartoonist: New Yorker cartoons, always attempting to be high brow, are sometimes funny, and sometimes not. Apply a joke to the cartoon by clicking on the High Brow Joke Creator. If you don't like the joke, try again! Is it funny? Do you get it? Even if it's not, don't worry, someone else will say they get it. https://thimbleprojects.org/mkaschak/58192

Hi @kaschakm , Thanks for submitting these. Could you go to: http://idmnyu.github.io/DM-GY6063-sp16-finalprojects/# and make sure your UI elements aren't overlapped with the page navigation? If so, please move your UI to the lower section of the page. Thanks!

Re: If I were a Star Wars Story, I think this would be more powerful if you added more left/right margin to the text. It still seems a bit wide on the page to me.

Re: If I were a New Yorker Cartoonist, I seem to recall the mouths moving in a previous iteration. Is this still the case?

Hi Prof. Siwoff,

I increased the margins for Star Wars. I was worried I would make them too indented for smaller monitors.

I lowered the button for New Yorker Cartoonist so that it is now below the page navigation buttons. Yes, the mouths moved in an earlier version but to prevent the text of the jokes from writing over itself I needed to utilize noLoop() which interfered with the moving mouth.

Please let me know what you think of the updates. Thanks.

I actually think the 2nd one is SUPER artistic. Awesome sketch.

The second one was actually cool, maybe noStroke make it better?

Awesome use of Rita! Maybe adjusting the background in the second one to have greater contrast to the red and blue would make it pop more? Great stuff!
