Project 2 Interim Presentation

MY IDEA - THE PUDDLE

My initial idea is a puddle where I can handle some rain on it. I like raindrop sound when they hit the water surface. I also like the way the raindrop gradually disappear on the water surface, soft and easy.

I look up on the internet for the sound of raindrop, it might be "pitter-patter".

Development

I like to make some more effects into my "picture", such as a footstep. Opposite the soft sound of raindrop, the footstep water splash sounds heavy. In my opinion, the footprints in rain refer to some kind of sad scene in romantic movies. Maybe, the footstep sounds heavy and kind of sad.

I am going to make three kinds of sounds : raindrop, footstep splash, and the echo.

Firstly, I will make a raining scene where the rain is dropping randomly and softly. With the mouse, we can create more raindrop or some footsteps.

Extra effect : 

• Press "P" to stop the rain
• It will be kind of fake if I make only one footprint shape all over again, I will distinguish the left and the right for more realistic.

My goals for next week :

The graphic with the codes will be a real challenge for me. I need to research on how to make a raindrop gradually disappear (mb opacity), and the footstep splash.

Also, I need to learn how to make the raindrop bounce back when it hit the border.
