Press Space to see the story about a very very popular fish's love life.
I had this idea in our class last week about a brief conversation between two fishes.
Below is what I made in the class:
When I got home, I developed the idea and turned it into a new scenario. Experimenting with Scratch was difficult at the beginning as I was very confused with how some commands in the script work, even after watching a short tutorial. As I explored more and more within the program myself, I discovered quite some interesting tricks and started to play with motions and background sound.
One thing that bothered me while doing the assignment, was that I sometimes could not select one single coded bar or opt it out from the script and I had to disassemble the whole script I just put together to correct or delete that coded bar. Aside from that, I edited the conversation between the sprites and had fun lining up their words by timing and sequence in order to make the story work. The original thought was to create a story only between two sprites but I added two more sprites as I worked on it, to add more dynamics to the story. I adjusted the timing of the conversation to help the story run more smoothly.

This story is so funny. I love the playful way you deal with Scratch. For the further project, I think you could try to manipulate with the background and the sound. When I look this animated story a little bit longer, I get bored. Maybe you could try to let the big fish work in different pathway instead of the only move in the same position.
