Purpose:

A continuation in the exploration and development of the students web skills using Dreamweaver and Flash as a basis of creation, but investigating new forms and technologies associated with HTML 5 and the elimination of Flash based animations by using JAVASCRIPT and other non-proprietary forms for creating animations and web based structures. For the first five weeks (or more) we will review what you learned in the previous classes and add to the arsenal of techniques you learned in the past to add to your proficiency.

We will build flexible sites which adapt to the device a person uses, as well as specific designs which are inalterable. We will investigate different ways of inter-activity to enhance user experience, and identify ways to make designs more visually powerful that load quickly.

Advanced techniques will be explored using class assignments which are designed to hone and develop the skill set of the student including the creation of some time based projects for web streaming. There will be at least four sites developed, but you will build on each site in class using a variety of techniques to progressively build your skills.

 

Applications and Programs to be used:

HTML-XHTML, DHTML, CSS, actionscript, Javascript, AJAX, XML, using Dreamweaver, FLASH Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign, After Effects, Final Cut, Adobe Premiere
