Sprite Movie
While making this sprite movie I learned a lot more about Adobe Flash. I learned how to create a play button that starts a movie. I also learned how to add sprites to a movie and make them move. I also created a flashing title, and added music to my animation.

Interactive Drum Kit
It was very interesting to make my own interactive drum kit. I created 3 similar drums, 2 similar cymbals and a big drum. The cymbals are identical and the drums have the same sound but are different colors. The bigger drum was unique, it had a louder and deeper sound then the other drums.

Math Fair Animation
The math fair animation challenged me, I had to use many different tools to create it. It took me a while to create it and edit it. The 3-D rotation tool and shape tween were an important part in the animation. It was also tough to merge the files with my partner.

Flash Animation Face and Stick Figure
While using Adobe Flash I created two animations. One of my animations was a stick figure doing jumping jacks. The other was a face making many different expressions. It was fun to use flash to make the animation and the stick figure. Pivot animations were easier to use stick figures, but I think flash is better if you want to make your own character or face and move it anyway you want. Adobe Flash is a lot more advanced and harder then pivot.

Moving Objects in Flash
Moving objects in flash is very different then moving objects in pivot. In pivot you have to move every body part towards the spot you want to go to in order to get there. In flash you can create a line that the objects on the layers follow. Flash seems to be a lot easier when dealing with multiple objects and pivot seems easier when trying to make an animation on people and animals performing activities.

Flash Tools
Flash is a very useful tool to create and edit images. I created a few of my own images and changed around the shape of the image. I created a face from an oval and other shapes. Then I rotated the face and made it smaller. Using flash was useful and fun.
