FLASH

Been using Flash today,
I have been a flash user for some years now self taught, but back in the macromedia days. Now being shown it properly i can see the advantages, however i dont think it is that great. In some cases it is a good tool to mock up quick animations and even storyboards. The web and inteeractive features are very helpful if thats what your into.

Today i learnt keyframes and tweening, and everything in the middle. I already knew a lot of this. When you delve further into the animation side i don't think it compares to dong it all hand drawn. Granted it takes a hell of a lot longer, but the end results are much better.

I know for this interactive brief i am going to have to grit my teeth and get on with it. Hopefully i will be pleasantly surprised.
