Week 8!

So i just realized that I forgot to post stuff last week! oops.

For this week I just plan on continueing my animation. The animation that im going to be doing is ninjas fighting. It's going to start out with the word "Ninjas" and then that will break apart, and go right into fighting ninjas.

End of Week #6!

So over this week I completed chapter 8 without any problems.

Now I have to come up with what I'm going to be doing for my final project. I've been tossing some ideas around in my head, one of them is doing something with Ninjas, making them fight, etc. But I will think that over some more over this weekend and have a final idea and also get started on it on Monday.

Week # 6!

So for this week i plan on finishing chapter 8, and then start on my own thing! I am not quite sure what I'm gonna be doing for that yet, but I will brain storm for some ideas.

The Beginning of Week #5!

So for this week, i plan on finishing chapter 7, and starting on chapter 8. Since chapter 8 is a longer one, I don't think ill make it to chapter 9.

End of Week # 4!

So i got through chapter 6, with pretty much no problems! It took me a little longer to do this one because i was having fun doing different things witht the snowflakes.

Beginning of Week 4!

During this week I plan on finishing up chapter 5, and then starting chapter 6. If Ido end up finishing with chapter 6, then i will start on chapter 7.

End of Week #3!

Ok, so i continued working on chapter 5, I only had one problem which was with the X boarding, getting the 'add shape hint' onto the X, I could get it on the board part though. I eventually figured it out, i had an extra frame between the board and the X, and so once i got rid of that it worked! It was really cool watching the board transform into the X.

Week #3!

Okee, since its a short week i plan on getting as far as I can in chapter 5, and if I do finish it, i will start on chapter 6.

Adding on to End of Week 2! blog...

The things that I have accomplished in chapter 3 was figuring out how to use the oval tool, drawing two cirlces and then placing one over the other, and when you move it again there is a piece of the circle that was underneath missing. Whenever i tried it there wouldnt be anything missing from the cirlce, but I did eventually figure out how to do it!

Another problem that I had encountered, was just finding some of the buttons, and adding another frame, but again I did figure things out.

End of Week 2!

So for this week i got done with chapter 3, and I started on chapter 4, so I didn't get as far as I would have liked. I did have a couple problems with doing some of the stuff, but I eventually figured things out!

Week 2!

Ok, so for this week i plan on finishing up chapter 3 and go through chapters 4 & 5!

Friday! end of week #1

Ok, so i got through chapters 1 & 2 and partially through 3. There was a lot of reading, but i wanted to take the time to read all of it so i can learn as much about Flash Animation, and how to use it, as possible!

Monday! week #1

So for this week i plan to do chapters 1, 2 & 3 from the textbook, and do the activities that go with them. Depending on how long it takes me for each chapter i will either add a chapter to the weeks following or subtract a chapter.

What I'm gonna be doing...

Ok so, the software that i want to learn about is Macromedia Flash. Reasons are personal and maybe as a career also. I would like to use the textbook & projects to learn about it. time frame will be the long-range (9 weeks). I would like to be graded by the final project.
