Animate a name

The Project

In this Scratch project, animate a name by bringing each letter to life with unique movements and effects. Users can create their name using the text tool and then program each letter to perform different actions. For example, letters can bounce, spin, change colors, or follow a specific path. The project demonstrates basic animation techniques and uses Scratch's motion, looks, and sound blocks to add interactivity and flair. It's a fun way to learn about sequencing, loops, and event handling in Scratch while personalizing the animation with your own name.
