METHOD:
Use Game / Rules as the forces.
To create the game board. Need to draw a circle around any edge of the square. Then draw a cross in the center. There are two players in this game, and each player has two frogs The frogs cannot pass through the side with the circle. One player wins by trapping the other one.
In cooperation with Sophia. We try to draw a map by moving frogs. We recorded our game process and get know how the frogs move then show their route with lines in Photoshop.
REFLECTION:
A more direct approach is to replace the pieces with pen, brushes, ink or something else, which allows the route of the pieces can be recorded in real-time. In the current method of recording the route of the pieces. We have to draw the lines in Photoshop according to the video. The only way is to represent the routes by straight lines. Therefore, the forces for this practice is not only come from the game but also the creator's mind.
REFLECTION02:
Play with the game board. Collage 4 game boards together. Each player has 4 pieces. Added rules of the game, can not cover the route(lines) already there.
