Project3 - Jeff C.

Project 3-1

Project 3-2

I think my favorite Flash feature from this module would have to be the 3d transform tool. When used in conjuction with gradient fills (to simulate light reflection) or with blending tools you can give many more objects the appearance of being 3 dimensional.

I like messing around in photoshop so the image that I used for my background was a PS image. It was easy and clean to change the file size in PS and then import it into Flash.

I'm not sure exactly how I will manage my symbol library in the future. I don't completely understand how the storage of your symbols works so I am making it a point to ask this tomorrow in class. However I haven't encountered any issues or challenges when creating or editing symbols. Sometimes I forget that if you have two of the same symbol on the stage and you alter the original, it will apply to both unless you turn one of them into a different symbol.

The 3d tools allow for different orientation and angle of objects and text, creating depth in the animation. I'm sure that this will be used a lot in future projects.
