BUILD THE MULTIMEDIA BOOK
You will need to complete the following tasks:
STORY PAGES
TASK: Create your story pages for the multimedia book.
CONTENTS PAGE
TASK: Although the pages of your story will be read in sequence, some users will want to return to a section. From each page it must be possible to return to a contents page. On the contents page there must be links to key points within the storybook. The number of links in your contents page will depend on how your story is structured - whether you have chapters, scenes, or just page numbers, etc. Click on the SPB Helper link for help.
COVER
TASK: Every storybook needs a cover that will persuade people to open the book. Design and create the cover page. It should attract attention and make the target audience want to read the story.
ANIMATED ENDING
TASK: Create an animated ending.
Each route through the story must end with an animated finale that leaves a lasting impression.
Each ending must be a proper animation. Make sure you know what this means. A still image moving across the screen is not enough!
Each ending must:
- run for at least 20 seconds
- include an original soundtrack you have produced - this doesn't have to be music but it must be original!
- run automatically without user input.
Note: You do not have to create two completely different animations. The second could be a modified version of the first.
