CSC 404 Game Design 1

This course focuses on developing projects with Flash animation tools. Topics will include traditional cel animation implemented on a timeline, motion tweening, shape tweening, embedded film clips, action scripting, sprite construction, and illusions. There will be an in-depth examination of wire-frame and three-dimensional rendering. Both free-standing Flash movie clips and interactions of Flash movie clips with Windows executables will be developed. Participants are expected to have completed at least an introductory-level course in computer science, such as CSC 111, or demonstrate a fundamental understanding of internet programming (HTML and JavaScript).
