My design proposal was for an animated story. The story was about a man who went up a set of stairs and down the other side of the stairs, on a sunny day. Before he went up the stairs, a car went past the stairs. It took me a while to think of this story, because I couldn’t decide what to do in the beginning. Then when I thought about the different procedures I could do, it didn’t take long for the idea to come. I ended up using more space than was provided on the design sheet, because I wanted to have my characters off the screen at the beginning of the story. I had to add an extra sheet of paper to the original design sheet, to show where my characters would start. The design for this program needed a design sheet that showed a grid from -100 to 2000 pixels, which I made by attaching the extra sheet of paper. One problem I encountered while making my program was that the lines I used to make the person weren’t in the right place. For example, linArm was longer on one side and shorter on the other side. I fixed this problem by re reading the code I had written and experimenting with coordinates for the X1 and X2 values, and adjusting each of them accordingly. Another problem I came across was that I didn’t like the limited range of VB and QB colours that were available to use. I tried to find some colours that I liked within the VB and QB range, but none of them worked with the staircase and background, etc.
