“Flash”back

I thought I’d go back and pull a few of my old school Flash projects to share with you all.

Bud goes Parasailing
First up is an animated short [speaker check before clicking, there's music] I did for my first interactive media course at Purdue. This course also happened to be the first one offered through the Computer Graphics program utilizing Flash, which was at version 3-4 at the time. Anyone remember tellTarget()? I was quite impressed with how well it came out, as was my professor. He included it as part of the sample collection on the CD that shipped with his book.

Discover Sailing
This second piece is from the CGT416 Senior Design Project course titled Implementing Flash Technology for an Educational Web Site for Aspiring Sailors. Quite ironic that my senior project centered around Flash-based eLearning. Was “eLearning” even a coined term in 1999? And no making fun of the instructional design. I never claimed to be an instructional designer. Heck, I didn’t even know anything about sailing. I simply had an interest. It was a learning experience from many angles.
