- Open 3D and XR Studio and navigate to the 3D Objects library from the navbar icon. Search and select the Sun icon. After adding Sun from the 3D objects Library to the 3D Working Space, resize it using the resize button located next to the scenes panel. For better organization, rename the icon from the layers panel.
- Utilize the drawing library to incorporate multiple layers for planets. This can be achieved by adding an ellipse and customizing its attributes, such as the number of points, within the path panel located on the right side of the interface.
- Next step is to copy, paste and resize the layers using ‘SHIFT+S’ so that the center point of each layer remains the same, but the sizes progressively increase.
- Keep adding planets, asteroids and other elements that are needed for the project. Finally the 3D space will look something as shown below.
- Now, let’s incorporate animations into our project using camera angles. Begin by introducing a perspective camera. You can add this either through the navigation bar or the layers panel. In the layers panel, click on the three dots, select “Add Layer,” then choose “camera,” and finally, pick “perspective camera” from the Camera Library located in the Right Sidebar.
- The next step involves incorporating states for perspective cameras. To illustrate how to add states for various angles that encompass different objects (e.g., planets) using the properties tab, please refer to the image provided below.
- Add animation and transitions to the States using the animation tab located in the right sidebar.
- The project will be finalized in the blocks environment by writing a short script after all the animations and transitions have been incorporated. This script will utilize Content Creation extension blocks like quiz and paragraphs. And to exhibit your creativity, you can incorporate other blocks such as buttons and navigation. Customize as you like, by adding other objects such as the moon, stars and galaxies.
- Now to tie everything together we will write a code script. The final script will look similar to this.
