Katherine Preston ’16, for her final project in CS 109, built an animation of a ball hitting a glass window. The window shatters into 50+ fragments which fly on trajectories she individually programmed. Along the way, the shards change color…
all of this would have been really cool, but she took it a step further — she printed a flip-book, titled “SMASH!” and bound it at WCMA’s Publication Studio.
See a video of her computer-animation flip-book of a baseball hitting a window.
