I need some way to understand what types of text “animation” Wendy wants to use before writing lots of code to show her examples. Bill Buxton describes a number of video techniques in Sketching User Experience. Perhaps there is a way we can experiment with the animation without doing any coding.
I’m envisioning a space made of foamboard that we can interrogate with a video camera. We can easily print out text and scroll it in front of the camera to get a sense of what it might look like in the space.
