Presenter: Troy Beer

This course is an introduction to the Flash software with a focus on animation. Flash is used increasingly on the web for animation, video and interface design. It is a tool that appeals both to graphic and motion designers, web programmers & interface designers. This course is for beginners who want an introduction to how it is used. Participants will become familiar with the Flash interface and use the various tools to produce a simple animation. On completion they will have resources to use in the delivery of a project addressing issues such as computer graphic formats, basic principles of animations and the tricks to building Flash projects for web-based delivery. The course is conducted on Macintosh computers but the software functions the same on a PC.

Great first look at Flash. I felt a sense of achievemnt mastering the basics.
Couldn't follow the lesson, kept falling behind - I need a stiff drink!!
Eventhough I am a little more advanced that a beginner I learnt several new features.
Need to follow step by step more slowly- more simple excercises step by step. Lots of time to get through excercises. Chance for teachers to swap ideas in the last 20 minutes would be good.

An excellent introductory course. Point to point illustrations.
Concepts were taught too quickly. Time was not given in between each process to practice. Tables near the screen were too close - your head had to be bent back to see the screen.
Would like some more examples of what could be done with students. I knew it was for beginners and I need to now practice.
It was ok, at times it became a little confusing as too many concepts were being presented at once. Also perhaps a little more one on one ateention with everyone.
Too much to learn, but wonderful.
Troy was friendly and helpful. His instructions were clear and easy to follow. I am fully motivated by this course and hopefully will utilise this knowledge and skills in the future.
