Adding Scenes to Your Blipp

Scenes allow you to create an informational architecture for your blipp. Think of it as the ability to create a menu for your Blipp where users can browse through information by going to different scenes. With scenes you could add a simple mini game or quiz and send users to different scenes based on their actions.

Key Terms

Scenes: A transition element for your blipp. Giving you the ability to multiple ‘screens,’ allowing you to create a hierarchy or an interactive story. Think of it like a movie.  Each scene is an extension of the previous one and contains a different cast of characters.

Canvas: A contained space in Blippbuilder that holds drawing and creation elements for your blipp. Located in the center of the screen. You will use this space similar to the way a painter creates their paintings, but instead of drawing you will drag and drop elements to create a picture.

Blippbuilder Scene Manager: A window that allows you to manage each scene in your blipp including adding, editing and deleting scenes.
