alice-teacher Alice Team Newsletter

[Eric Brown]

Dear All,

I wanted to share a couple Alice Team updates:

1.  Our summer workshop has finally been posted for July 15-19th .  We have been guaranteed our space so can finally officially announce it but our registration page is not quite up and running yet.  Feel free to reach out to  us to reserve a spot or ask any questions:

http://www.alice.org/resources/workshops/introduction-to-alice-3-workshop/

Also please share any workshops or summer camps you know of with us so we can post them on our site.

2.  We have released some new draft lessons:

An Alice game design lesson with a first example game w/ more to come: http://www.alice.org/resources/lessons/design-process-games/

A good accompaniment to this lesson in partnership with the conditional and events lessons is using variables: http://www.alice.org/resources/lessons/using-variables/

3.  We have posted a first set of biped animation how tos that could be helpful for people trying to go deeper into joint animation:

A biped joint overview with joint by joint run down (view the quick reference for all of the information):  http://www.alice.org/resources/how-tos/manipulating-biped-joints/

A biped walk cycle how to including example files (highly commented but be aware they are out there):  http://www.alice.org/resources/how-tos/biped-walk-cycle/

4.  For those in the Western PA region we have opened the submission portal for the regional challenge:  https://www.judgify.me/alicechallenge-2019

As always we thank you for your support of the The Alice Project and welcome any and all feedback and requests.  

Sincerely,

Eric
