			==History==
			The earliest known practical use for Brush Adventures was a down-clip in the upper interior section of Oni Island which skips a puzzle to obtain the lockjaw key that blocks-off the penultimate Tobi race. By performing a standard down clip in front of the lockjaw door, you can point the camera up from underground and place a bomb on the cracked side of the wall, then enter the room to grab the key. This was first described by Groobo in [https://forum.speeddemosarchive.com/post/okami_ps213.html this SDA thread]:
			:"There's one thing though: Oni Island after the side view part - you can "sink" the camera under the floor near the locked door and place a cherry bomb behind the wall, skipping basically the whole area."

== Explanation ==
'''Brush Adventure''' (aka Camera Adventure) refers to the collection of techniques that involve taking the celestial brush camera outside of its normal boundaries. This includes bringing the camera far away from Ammy, as well as clipping it out of bounds. Brush Adventures are usually used to hit brush technique triggers when getting Ammy herself into position would be slower or impossible.

When a brush adventure is used to hit a trigger which teleports Ammy to a different position in the same map, it is sometimes called a '''brush warp''' (aka cutscene warp).

=== Camera Modes ===
In general, Okami has two main camera modes: outer and inner. They are toggled by tapping the L button. These two modes affect what happens when the brush camera is moved away from Ammy before the brush button is released.

In outer cam, the brush will always snap back to Ammy in a fraction of a second, even over large distances. This means any brush adventures that start with outer cam must be completed within a single use of the brush.

In inner cam, the camera will stay in place ''so long as'' neither Ammy nor the camera move (i.e. neither stick is touched and Ammy doesn't tackle, fall, slide, get hit, etc.). If the brush is used again, the brush camera's origin will shift to be directly in front of the camera. This is called '''re-brushing''' and allows for long-distance camera adventures to be performed.

=== Stretching ===
Certain patterns of movement can consistently ```stretch``` the camera away from Ammy, shifting the origin point it rotates about. In general, this involves using the left and right sticks to simultaneously. The left stick moves the brush to the edge of the screen, dragging it horizontally. The right stick rotates the camera to slowly move it in the same direction. When the camera has rotated enough, the camera should slide in that direction. The camera can be simultaneously moved up or down by using the corners of the screen. Even without re-brushing, large stretches can be achieved if there is sufficient space to rotate the camera around. See [[Cookie Clip]] and NG [[Oki Skip]] for examples.

In general, stretching can be fiddly and inconsistent if one isn't familiar with the exact pattern of movement required for a given brush adventure. Don't be afraid to practice and experiment.

=== Clipping ===
Unlike Ammy, the brush camera can be clipped out of bounds far more easily. It also isn't affected by gravity, allowing it to move across the void.

The primary technique used to get the brush OoB is a '''floor clip'''. This is performed by following these steps:
# Start with inner cam on flat ground. For unclear reasons, not all surfaces work. Mildly curved/angled ground may work in some cases.
# Pan the non-brush camera as far above Ammy as it will go.
# Brush, then drag the brush straight to the bottom edge until it stops stretching. Don't rotate the brush.
# Re-brush, then drag the brush down again. While still holding the brush, pan the camera down through the floor.

If done correctly and conditions permit, the camera will phase directly through the floor. From there, one can re-brush again and begin stretching the camera. This type of clip is used in [[Wawku Key Skip]] and the [[Sunken Ship Skips|Sunken Ship]].

Clipping the camera in other locations is more case-specific. In general, the camera can be stretched over invisible walls to effectively get OoB wherever there's no ceiling. There are also a few places where it can be clipped through walls, such as with NG [[Oni Island Floor 4 Skips|Oni Island Floor 4 Skip]].
