Read description and rubric carefully. Submitting incorrect file types or failing to meet the criterion listed below will likely result in a grade of zero

For this project, you'll be developing a procedural canvas animation using a combination of shapes, text, and motion. Your animation will be judged on its creativity and artistic output as well as on its technical elements, and should produce unique output each time it is run. It should be creative and substantial, transferring concepts learned in the modules into an original work - submissions that look like the lab assignments or example code will not receive a high grade.

Your animation must incorporate:

• Appropriate use of built-in canvas context methods. No external canvas libraries are permitted: instead, use JavaScript and generate your own solutions from the built-in foundation. (2 points)
• Generated shapes. Using our examples for creating functions to draw shapes, design at least five functions for different shapes that will be generated by canvas as part of your animation. These should include unusual non-regular shapes (not just circles and squares, although that can be two of your five.) (5 points) 
• Use of text. Your animation should use text as part of the design. This might include generating messages that display in unexpected ways, integrating a title sequence, or using letters and words as part of the animation itself.  (3 points)
• Smooth progressive movement. At each stage, the animation should recalculate the movement of objects based on their previous location. Objects may disappear and can be generated at random, but there must be some continuity between frames. (3 points)
• Thoughtful color and design. The animation should build patterns or complexity at intervals while demonstrating intention of design in all elements, including use of color and contrast. (2 points)

A-level work will push significantly beyond the class examples to find new creative applications of demonstrated methods. For this project, there is no starter code: you are responsible for working from the examples to define your canvas-based display.

Assignment Requirements

In addition to the requirements listed in the description, you should submit your files in a .zip file through webcourses. You also need to host this site on Sulley.

In the submission comments section, you must include the URL to the hosted site. Test your site from a different computer, before submitting. If you do not include the URL, or the site does not display properly, you may receive a zero on this assignment. Make sure both the file is uploaded, and the submission comments are displaying.
