Gamespace: Camera & Skybox

I wanted my camera to follow the player when in the Game View and therefore set my camera to follow my target. However, this led me to not being able to see the ball. Therefore I had to add an offset so that the ball could be seen so that the player could see where they were going.

The 'Follow Target' script was attached to the Main Camera which allows the target for the camera to follow to be set and allows values for the camera offset to be changed directly in the inspector.

The inspector for the skybox asset allowed me to set the image used as a panoramic and change the image type to 360 degrees.

The 'FollowTarget' script allows the transform variable 'target' and the Vector3 variable 'offset' editable outside of the script as these were made public.

transform.position sets the transform position to equal the target's position (The player's position (sphere)) with the addition of an offset (if set) so that the player is next to/above/in front of the target.

Moreover, the skybox was attached to the camera.

[Research] Traditional Poster Design (4CTA1214)

Image
As you can see from the superman poster, there are only four main colours used which includes red, blue, yellow and brown. All elements are filled in with block colours with no shading which was a common colour theme for traditional posters of this kind. This poster may have been used to advertise a new Superman comic or movie depending on the year it was created. The expression on the characters face fits the title shown on the poster explaining that he is returning. This poster advertised Coca Cola, and looks as though this specific poster was used in the USA - due to the currency used. The whole aim of the poster is to incorporate this drink into working peoples daily lives. This is seen by the slogan, 'Work refreshed' and the small graphics on the bottom right of the poster. Displayed is a man working in a factory environment and a lady is working in an office environment both drinking cola during their breaks - to feel refreshed. In some ways the bottle and
