Homework 4 - Week 4

Assignment

Think about an animation that you would like to create, e.g. something that could evolve into a comic strip, a splash page, a moving logo, an explanatory animation, a slide show, etc. Then create a Flash file that includes:

  • At least four buttons that you can place either on single frames, extend over several frames or over the whole timeline. These buttons should position the playhead (i.e. the user) in a new frame.
Reuse of homework 1 and 2
  • If you wish you can add buttons on top of your previous homework (in any way you like). But this is by no means an obligation nor does it have an influence on grading.
Submission date and format
  • To be returned by Monday, at start of week 5 lesson
  • Use the following Flash file name p1-familyname-firstname.fla, e.g.
p2-miller-joe.fla
... I must be able to distinguish these files and we want to avoid overwriting.
Other constraints
  • Reuse of objects: 1/3 must be drawn by yourself, max. 1/3 imported but customized, max. 1/3 imported as is. (So you also can do everything by yourself).
  • There is no restriction on the subject, e.g. you can do a slide show or launch motion/shape/frame animations.
  • You can take either buttons from the library or make your own.
  • You must fill in a document description using the same template as in homework 1.
  • Homework projects are individual. If you work with others, make sure that the individual projects differ, i.e. the "reuse of objects" criteria above apply.
  • If you reuse old homework, make sure that certain errors are fixed (e.g. use only a single non-editable object in a motion tween)
Evaluation criteria - bonus and malus points

Same as before

The document description

Your p2-xxx-xxx.fla file must include a document description.

  • Insert it with menu Modify->Document
  • Enter a title and description
  • See the template
