Hello and welcome to Day Three
of Google CS First Scratch Art.
Today, you will create a project
in which a famous painting comes to life.
To do this, you'll learn about
an important computer science concept, Events.
In computer science, an event is something that
causes an action to happen.
An event can be pressing a key on your keyboard,
clicking a sprite, or many other things.
You've actually used an event before.
Last club day, when you made the animation start,
by clicking the green flag, you used an event.
Artists use events to allow viewers
to do more than just look at art.
They invite the audience to become a part of it.
When people step on the circles in this art piece,
for example, they change the colors of the circles.
When a hand moves over this canvas,
the program generates lines.
You react to events too.
When your alarm clock rings, you wake up.
When your friend calls your name,
you look up and pay attention.
In today's project, you will create events
that make the characters in paintings talk
when someone clicks on them.
You will use computer science to make well known paintings
come to life and help people see art in a whole new way.
In this video, you'll learn how to sign in to Scratch
and remix a starter project.
This video will walk you through the steps,
then you'll try them on your own.
To start, choose which painting to make interactive.
American Gothic. The Scream.
A Kuniyoshi woodcut where the faces
can be looked at in any direction.
Or Dido Elizabeth Bell.
Click the link for the painting you chose
to open the starter project.
This example will use America Gothic.
But you can choose any painting you like.
Sign in to Scratch, using the information
from your CS First Club Passport.
Then click on the Remix button.
You have now created a copy of the Starter Project
you can work with.
Now it's your turn.
Choose a started project to remix
then click on the link next to this video to open it.
Sign in to Scratch and finally remix the started project.
After you finish these three steps,
switch back to this CS First tab
and click on the green arrow to move on to the next video.
Remember, if you have a question,
you can always look back in the video or ask a neighbor.
