Today i was able to complete converting my headers into buttons and then add action scripts to link my pages. i have now completed linking my pages and will start adding in my information next lesson. below is a print screen of how i was able o accomplish this task.

Once i had created my buttons i then right clicked on each button ad click add action. I was then able to type in my action which was:

on (release) { loadMovieNum("[Enter page name]",0); }

this action then allows my pages to link.

Today i have been practising motion tweens and shape tweens in which i can add into my project, although we have been using the programme adobe flash for a while now it has taken me longer than i though to get to grips with all of the tools it contains. So i have spent the lesson understanding and using the tools to play around with different tweens. Below is an example i had created during the lesson which has helped me in understanding each tool.

Today during the lesson i started to create my prototype, which i will later finish at home. I created this prototype using microsoft power point as this programme allows me to link pages as well as create animations using motion paths and entrances. i simply created the shapes i needed using the shape tool and edited the colours to which i needed. When creating my quiz i simply linked the answers so that the correct answer can be chosen and will be displayed in the score page. Below is a presentaion of my prototype:

Today during the lesson i created my storyboard for my animation. i simply drew my animation on a A4 sized paper with a description below. i had many attempts at my animation storyboard and it took my 3 tries until i was happy with my animation. I had come up with the concept of a picture of the world spinning in the middle of the screen with popular foods from countries around the world to appear from the world including a description of the food. The idea seemed simple yet full of knowledgeable information.

below is my storyboard which i scanned onto the computer:

Monday 27th

Today i created my first Gantt chart. i will use this gantt chart as a calender for my project to keep my on track. I had entered each task onto my timeline including meets with my client and senior manager.

once i had entered in each task i then edited the date and time length i needed it order to complete each task. i had linked certain task together because in order to complete a task another may be needed to be complete first. this link enables the programme to edit the date for each task automatically if i was needing more time to complete a task.

i then entered in milestones when having a meeting either with my senior manager or client which was needed before i continue with the progression of my project.
