Interactive Drum Kit


During my web-design class, I learned how to make an interactive drum kit. At first, my teacher showed us how to make an animated button to learn the basics. After that activity, we learned how to put sounds on objects. I really enjoyed this project because it made me realize how people create the games that are interactive. One difficulty that I had along the way was putting the sounds on the object. I didn't know whether to put the sound on the timeline or on top of my drums. I eventually learned that I did have to put the sound on top of my drums. Overall, I would do this project again.

Math Fair Animation



In my web-design class we were given an assignment where we had to create an animation for the math fair. We had to use the skills that we learned in flash to create a clean and smooth animation. At first I thought that this project was going to be easy, but along the way I found a few things difficult to deal with. Some of these problems involved deciding how long one animation should be and how to create different background colors for each animation. I learned that to you had to create a layer for the background and create a rectangle to fit the stage and change the background color from there for each animation. It was also hard finding GIFs that were related to math. From all the projects that we have been assigned, I would say that this project is my favorite because I was able to show my creativity and put my own ideas into an animation. I am very content with the work my partner, Brenda, and I have made because we worked hard on each animation and used many of the skills that we were taught in class for Flash.
