Flash
Macromedia Flash
is a comprehensive program for animation on the Web, and makes a perfect
all round web design tool. Using Flash is like using three applications
in one. Firstly Flash is an authoring program, which can be used to
create interactive multimedia files. Also it is an animation sequencer,
that can create or simulate motion or movement on screen. Finally
Flash is a vector-based drawing program, similar to Illustrator which
lets you draw pictures on-screen.
You can also do this course as part of a package. Please go to Web
Design for more information.
This 30 hour
course is taught with a hands-on instruction manual, and source files.
First you will learn the environment of Flash, its tools and palettes.
You will then move into more advanced features of Flash, such as Working
with Layers, Scenes and Actions.
Trainers are available at all times to assist you. After completing
the course, you can then begin to build a portfolio of your work to
show potential employers and clients.
