Afternoon Session: GSAP Animation Techniques and Interactive Game Design
During the afternoon session you will learn how to use GSAP within Storyline to combine animation and interactivity in ways that will delight your users!
The afternoon will be dedicated to using GSAP (GreenSock Animation Platform) to create advanced animation sequences within Articulate Storyline 360. Participants will gain hands-on experience working with GSAP to design animations triggered by the timeline and user interactions.
In the final portion of the day, you’ll build a short game experience in Storyline. By using GSAP scripting, you’ll animate a character, implement collision detection, and create motion effects to produce an engaging and interactive end product.
Key topics of the afternoon session include:
- Overview of GSAP and its potential for creating sophisticated 2D animations.
- Step-by-step examples of animating Storyline objects using GSAP scripting.
- Techniques to integrate interactivity into GSAP animations for unique user experiences.
- Workshop Outcome
By the end of the day, you’ll be equipped to use advanced interactivity techniques and GSAP animations in your own projects. You’ll leave with the confidence to create highly engaging user experiences that can control and manipulate data in ways that captivate learners and deliver meaningful outcomes.
