Throughout this course we will explore the animation software Adobe Flash. Flash manipulates vector graphics which we will be able to create in Adobe Illustrator. We will learn about good design and color theory and focus on the art elements and principles of design. We will use Flash to create animation videos and banners for web pages. If you're interested in website interactivity then make sure you sign up to take Mr. Sawyer's Flash Programming class. We will not dive too deep into coding.

To gain a better idea about what we will be able to do by the conclusion of this course check out the artist James Lee who created 24 mini flash animations. media type="custom" key="12116248" align="center"
