Project 4 - Jeremiah Williams

This was actually a pretty fun project.  I did struggle a little with some of the Kinetics at first, and then just worked my way through them, the videos helped a lot on this one, I watched one of them 3 or 4 times.
So here is my teaser image.
The robot:  I started with a cassette image I had found online at graphicshunt.com.  I edited it a little.  I was originally going to use it as the head, but this turned out a lot better I think.  Here is the original cassette image:
The little string on the top that is gray, that was my shape movement.  The robot is the symbol.  I used for the background music, a song from KRS One and Buckshot called robot.   For the audio settings, I set it to be mp3, though I transferred a wav file.  I gave it a 32bps and set teh quality to fastest.  I thought it came out decent enough. At the end, I also tried to make the robot in fact, do the robot.
I used a brick pattern bmp for the background, and when I did the trace, I set the color threshold to 50 and the pixel area to 10.  This gave it a cool look. Here is the original:


All in all, I really enjoyed this project, It was fun.
