Thoughts: The Flash Project

First of all, Flash is one crazy confusing program.  I'm not sure that I'll ever understand its full potential... at least not anytime soon.  Despite that fact, I am really enjoying delving further into the program for this project.  I have had experience in Flash prior to this project because of my classes in the TAM program here at CU.  I've made a game (nothing really fancy), a short movie with images, and a website. All pretty basic and took forever to complete.

For this project conceptually I am still struggling. I think I might want to make another movie with some digital images I've taken, but I am still unsure.  I would like to do something different from what I've done in the past. I know that the project is going to be focused more on form and color rather than ideas - more abstract and visually-based.

One thing I've noticed in my experience with Flash is that the internet has made learning the program very easy. If you at least have a general understanding of Flash (like movie clips, layers, keyframes, tweens, etc.), all you really have to do is google for tutorials on how to do everything else. Google and the internet truly help new and passionate designers excel in digital and web design.
