What I Want To Be



with so many career choices, its hard to decide what you want to be. i'm not absolutely 100% sure what i want to be at this moment, but i do have an idea. i'd like to go into the medical field, preferably psychology. its something thats always interested me. i like to know why people do the things they do, why they act they way they act, why they think the way they think. also, a career in law is a big option for me. i love politics, and i like to debate subjects. as of now though, anythings possible.

Adding Navigation

This week in Globaloria, we've been learning how to make buttons to switch between scenes. Flash is fun, but its a complicated program. If you don't do the right thing, you could wind up with something completely different from what you originally planned. In this particular unit, we worked on making buttons to navigate between scenes. I had a problem where instead of working quite right, it was just a box that strobbed, and it was because I wasn't typing something just right. So simple mistakes can make your file do something entirely different. I've learned how to do a lot this year.

What I've Done In Flash


We've done a lot in Flash the past few days. We've been learning how to draw in Flash, and work with it. We've watched videos and took tutorials, and then we started drawing out paper prototypes in Flash. So far, we've got the title page, the rules page, the loading page, the level one page, and the select a character page. I think Flash is pretty easy to work with once you understand how to use it.
