Welcome To Action Script

Hi all, this June holiday, why not pick up some useful tips / learn new skills from some of Adobe's software?

Here's a video on an introduction to action scripting.. Hopefully you'll learn something about the basics of action scripting from this video. This is good for those taking part in the Action Script Awards. Sec1s, you'll learn action scripting in semester 2 :)




You can find more video tutorials online! Just GOOGLE!

Have fun!

June, Oh June!

Animania 2010

To all sec1 and 2 students involved,

I hope you have not forgotten about your participation in this competition. DATELINE IS DECEMBER 1ST.

Now that the exams are over, I'm opening up lab 4 for you guys after school, to work on your animation. BUT PLEASE INFORM ME IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO STAY BACK.

For those who wish to do it at home, by all means, go ahead. But do take note that if you are using Adobe Flash CS4 to do your animation, it cant be opened in school. Cause our school's version is Macromedia MX 2004 (very old, i know).

Also, Motion Tween in Adobe CS 3 and MX 2004 is called Classic Tween in Adobe CS 4.

If you face any difficulties in doing up your flash, you can email me!
