Where Does the Concept of Time Travel Come From? | Live Science

These images are references I found after I came up with my idea for the project. My idea was to have fictional story where the user would be able to choose an item to take with them to the future and then that item would have an impact on the future which would be shown through a hologram news.
These ideas were based off the research I did into unusual predictions of the future.
I converted some sketches I drew into digital designs to use in the project. When opening animate I first set up the different layers and labels and started with creating the landing page. To do this I used the city i made for the transition effect and added a button which would go to the next page and I also added the bbc logo as required by the brief. (If I remember I will add some sort of link to the logo). Once I had this first page working I started on the second page which would be the current time room which I designed and it would also be an introduction to the rest of the pages. On this page I added some text and made it look like the text was being typed by animating what was in the text box. (This probably wasn't the best way to do this but I think it worked well show the effect I was wanting.) I also made sure that the background was traced since it was a bitmap image, I did the same for the images I was going to use for buttons. I had saved a version of the buttons with a glow behind them however when tracing these they didn't look very good so I replaced them with just a white box behind them. I then animated the buttons so that they sort of blink to draw attention to them, I also added this click icon : R.803a5933a0d52f1e43bebe51c66b5e7b (938×982) (bing.com) (as a traced bitmap) to the items to show that they are things to click.
I then went on to create a transition of clocks once an item is clicked. For this I used the rotating animation that I created for the last project and I just made it look like a clock and duplicated it. For this part I had to set the timing up on the main scene so that it would not go on forever and also because there would be no button on this page to take the user to the next scene since I didn't want the user to click too much. The next page was also animated in the main scene which included showing the future versions of the room (Which was the same as the current day room but it had been edited to look more futuristic and the non-chosen item was not in the room) since there were two choices I had to make two backgrounds and each of these had their own section on the main scene timeline.
The last thing I did in this session was animate the hologram screen, for this I created the shape and used the anchor point to have it scale from the bottom and then zoom in from the middle. I had to seperate this animation into two parts since I needed to move the anchor point.
After this I need to create the four different news screens (with animations and buttons), create a page which take the user back to the start if they want to and I need to get the text to speech audio and add it.
