Homework 4 - Week 5
- Assignment
Create a really complex button and that includes well done graphics and/or animations. In addition, create 2 minor variants of the same button. To do so: duplicate then rename the button you created first (right-click in the library). I only require you to design buttons in this option.
- Reuse of prior homework
- If you wish you can use your previous homework (in any way you like), e.g. include each animation as swf file in a different frame. 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 6 lesson
- Use the following Flash file name project4-familyname-firstname.fla, e.g.
- project4-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 create any "slide show" you want or design any crazy button you like.
- For the slideshow (only) 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 (include late submission policy). You can examine the grading rubric in the worldclassroom.
- The document description
Your p4-xxx-xxx.fla file must include a document description.
- Insert it with menu Modify->Document
- Enter a title and description
- See the template
