Day 03

Here we discuss an approach to making more structured sketches. Don't be afraid to use a piece of scratch paper to plan your processing sketch. We also talk about grayscale, RGB color and transparency. H01 is due and H02 is now available for your perusal. Watch the video:

Color and transparency. from Albert Schueller on Vimeo.

We review coordinate systems and shapes by recreating a classic doodle from childhood. We continue the example by introducing color to the figure. We explain the grayscale and RGB color schemes. We introduced the stroke() and fill() commands. We finish with the idea of transparency.

  4. Processing has a built in color chooser if you click on the tools option on top of the PDE window. Thank you for the great course, learning a lot so far!
