Creative Multimedia Programming and animation

Animation is a combination of the skills learned in a creative multimedia programming environment - interface design and user experience are combined with scripting language to create dynamic multimedia pieces. Sound editing, graphic design, and programming all come together to create a finished product. For example, I created this animation in Flash . I create the illustrations using Adobe Illustrator and used Flash's inbuilt programming language, ActionScript, to get my animation moving. I also used Adobe Audition to edit and clip the sounds. This animation is intended to enhance learning for young children, hence the nursery rhyme theme of Pop Goes the Weasel.
