This is awesome! Very campy horror-movie vibes
Finally found the time to get back to this!
Placing those glasses was harder than I expected, and it was interesting to see how trying to move them ever so slightly after the rest of the code was done actually meant I had to go back in and make changes to more than one field for everything to still work. So I think I’ll leave the sunglasses as they are. For now.
So a couple things about this one:
It works, but when I just put ‘var headline_box = rect(-5, 210, movie.width, 62);’ it worked ok in the editor, however in the ‘published’ screen it actually moved the rectangle all the way to the left! While messing around I changed ‘movie.width’ to ‘movie.width+12’ and it showed the edge of the rectangle on the left side of the screen. I messed around more and now it’s actually the way I wanted it, but I had to use ‘movie-width+500’. I don’t mind, but I’m wondering why it got weird in the publisher when (as far as I can tell) I used the original instructions. And why did it only get weird after I put it in the publisher, but not while it was in the editor?
Also is there a list of fonts that work?
This is wonderful! I really like how organized your code is.
Hi Carolyn,
I’ll look into the bug you’re talking about.
Here are a list of web-safe fonts that will work on any web-based project, including the ones you make on Vidcode! https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_websafe_fonts.asp
Hi Leandra,
Thanks for the link! And I just realized I could have done a screen capture when it happened! Oh well, maybe if something else odd happens I’ll remember to document it better.
Here’s the link to my first project! I’ve run through Javascript 101 with my students a few times before taking the PD course, so I was trying to push myself to use filters and videos that I hadn’t before.
This is great! Thank you for sharing
These are great! I love the multiple lines of text.
