Exam contents

I will test points mentioned in the Flash animation summary (read this to check what you should know)

In particular, prepare for the following subjects:

• Use of layers
• Use and editing of embedded movie clip symbols (animations within animations)
• Frame-by-frame animation
• Motion tweening with "flight path" editing, size changes and tint
• Guided / classic motion tweening (likely not, only if confirmed !)
• Shape tweening
• Motion/Shape/frame-by-frame animation within an embedded movie clip
• Color gradients
• Simple transforms (e.g. changing a size or an envelope with the selection or the subselection tool)
• Drawing (only a little bit)

Other information

• "Open book/Internet": All materials are allowed (e.g. books, handouts, web pages)
• Use of communication tools is strictly forbidden (no chat, no mail, etc.). No talking between students. Offenders may get an F.

Lectures notes

• Flash First Steps (Index of all handouts, also available in PDF)
• List of Flash tutorials (full list, you only need some, i.e. see above)

Note: Make sure to look at the Flash animation summary. It includes both the 2007 and the 2008 exam.
