Falling Leaves
Making Art with Leaf Pathing
My project aims to show the visualization of the falling of leaves and how they can be affected by natural elements.
I was interested in seeing the paths that leaves take when they fall, and how that compares to the different ways that other leaves fall. I wanted to emulate an autumn experience by using colors that are representative of fall, such as different shades of orange, green and red. I wanted to incorporate an interactive element that essentially resembles the wind, with the different arrow keys representing the different directions of the wind. I added an object trail (with help from The Coding Train) to show where the leaves were before and where they are now. I decided to make the trail different stroke weights to add character.
- how the initial project looks.
2. what the project looks like when leaves spawn.
3. what the project looks like after the leaves loop again.
4. what the project looks like when you interact with it using the arrow keys.
