Media

This page describes the media I used to create my project and how I transformed them.

Project 1 - Flash Animation

For the Flash animation I used the programs Photoshop, Illustrator, and Flash. I first started off by getting someone to take pictures of me in certain poses for my animation. I then took those pictures into Illustrator and made them into vector images. The background from the last scene is also a image that was converted to a vector image. I then made all the other images in Photoshop from scratch. I then animated the images through Flash to make what is the completed project. Below are images that show the original picture, and then what it looks like when it is a vector image.

Project 2 - Website

For this project only used Photoshop and Dreamweaver. The first thing I made was a site layout in Photoshop of what I basically wanted my site to look like. The below image is the original site layout I made.

Then all I did was copy the images out of my layout and make them into different files. After that, I hand-coded the entire website in Dreamweaver.

Project 3 - 10 Tips

The programs I used for the 10 Tips project were Photoshop, Flash, and Dreamweaver. I first used Photoshop to resize and crop the images. I then put those images into Flash for animating. And I used Dreamweaver to create the style sheet and tips. As simple as that.

Project 4 - Audio

For project 4 I used quite a few programs. They consisted of Photoshop, Flash, Dreamweaver, an mp3 editor, and an mp3 recorder. I started by recording the interviews on a free mp3 recorder on my Windows computer. I then brought them over to my mac and edited down the size on them. After that I edited down the size of the photographs, created the buttons, and the background in Photoshop. I used Dreamweaver to make the XML file. Then everything was put together in flash after a lot of trouble and that's it.
