Flash is a vector animation software, originally designed to create animations for display on web pages. Vector graphics are ideal for the web because they are so lightweight.

Flash is used by designers to have ultimate control of timing, spacing, hierarchy, and rhythm of a visual concept or message.

This flash project was very complex and had quite a few pathways. It was very detailed as well and just about everything on the page was interactive. It took you on a journey and invited you to interact and click on everything. I was impressed by the clock and how this person made the shadows.

This flash project was very effective because of its use of space and dimension. i felt like i was traveling through this typographic and graphic world as I learned about the costs of the war. It used simple tools like repetition to create more intricate and complicated scenes like when the hot air balloons were flying to the top. This was all tied together with the use of three basic colors and repeating them throughout the project. I really liked the use of typography in the beginning because it told the story in a simple way that was straightforward and straight forward.

This was great because i love story tales and the modern spin was something i have never seen before. The way the creator took apart each scene and analyzed each part of the story in depth. i liked how everything was broken down and then put back together in depth. This animation style related back to the story and how the creator broke the fairy tale into facts, numbers, and symbols. It kept the audience interested because it was constantly moving from one room to the next and from one idea to the next.
