Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

  • examine the concepts and technology behind Flash 8. You will also save and manage workspace layouts, work with panels, and set initial movie characteristics using the Property Inspector.
  • use Flash 8’s basic drawing and painting tools, modify the outline and fill properties of objects, and create custom color swatches, gradients, and line styles.
  • select objects using the selection tools. You will experiment with line and shape interaction, and use the options in Flash 8 to transform and group objects. You will also import a bitmap image into a Flash 8 document and convert it to a vector image.
  • create text blocks and convert them into shapes.
  • work with Flash 8 movies that contain multiple layers. You will edit and manipulate the movies and create a visual effect using mask layers. You will also work with the Align panel to quickly arrange objects on multiple layers.
  • work with different types of animations. You will create frame-by-frame, shape-tween, and motion-tween animations. You will also add a motion guide layer to improve the look of motion-tween animations.
