Taught by Joost De Geyter.  Click here for Joost's profile.

Adobe Flash is the leading animation and interactivity software being used on the Web today, and it's importance continues to explode ever greater as Web sites become more and more sophisticated and interactive every day.  Flash is commonly used to create dynamic content, advertisements, to integrate video into web pages, and more recently, to develop rich Internet applications.  Web design is making dramatic moves away from traditional HTML and toward the interactivity and multimedia features offered by Flash.  This course is intended for anyone who is interested in gaining a basic proficiency in Adobe Flash CS4.  We will focus on the core skills needed for starting a flash project, such as drawing, tweening, and using the timeline, as well as how to avoid the common pitfalls that new users often experience.  This is a hands-on workshop oriented class, where students will implement the skills learned in class in ongoing projects throughout the ten weeks.  In this course, students will learn to create vector-based artwork and animate it in Flash, learn about the Flash interface, drawing and color tools, animation basics, tweening, symbols, basic timeline-based scripting, and making simple Flash files to embed into Web pages.
