Week 3

This weeks lecture was on HCI, HCI i didnt know anything about before i went to the lecture which meant i learned alot about the topic from the lecture. We looked at different interfaces and different websites and how they used different interfaces and the advantages and disadvantages of this. HCI stands for Human- Computer Interaction. I found it is all about how the computer and the user interacts using periferals such as the monitor and keybaord etc... so the use of a certain type of interface on a website such as flash on the sterophonics website can be good but only if your users have flash on their computer.
The tutorial this week i really enjoyed we did shape tweening which was where i made the shape number one into shape number two which was animated this tutorial allowed me to see a different part of flash which i have not experienced before. i found the worksheet to help us was very helpful and i had a lot of fun playing with flash, since knowing how to use the shape tweening part of flash. im enjoying these flash classes because i am learning more and more about flash which i never really looked at before. There is so much on the internet which is all flash i never realised how much of it was flash. And these flash tutorials are interesting aswell as useful.
Most games on the internet these days are using flash, below there a link to a website of games which are made in flash.
