The tutorials and the examples below are just that, examples. I encourage you to create animations and drawings of your own design to be submitted for evaluation.

These tutorials are self directed. this means you must read and follow directions carefully. Remember, read through the entire tutorial, then start again and proceed through the steps given.

It is important to know how you will be assessed on your projects before you begin. Read the guidelines and marking rubric for these three projects. Ask your teacher to clarify any uncertainties about project expectations.Use this project organization sheet as a guide to help you stay on task

Download a trial version of Flash MX here to do these assignments at home!

If you have problems: Ask three then me.

You will later insert these animations into your completed Web Pages.

This tutorial shows some of the features and tools of Flash MX. It is great practice for following directions and an excellent starting point. You will need to save this file called assets to your account. you will use it during the tutorial.

Open both the tutorial and run Flash at the same time. You can stop and start the tutorial at any time by using the controls at the bottom.

This tutorial will guide you through the process of creating a Motion Tween. When the tutorial pauses, stop and complete the step in your project. Before you start, think about the background color of your web page. the background of your web page should be the same as the background color of your Tween or the Tween wont look right. White always works good! Remember to save your work to your M drive regularly.
