Coding and Programming 2

Finally! Coding for Hot spots for my video link! I managed to overcome my problem of placing the hot-spots in the video with the help of my tutor.

Coding and Programming

Coding is hardest part as for me because I am not so good in Action Scripts. I Google, asked around and got help from various places and people to complete my application. My tutor, Mr.Shahnaz, helped alot in coding and programming. He even suggested me few other solutions and ideas for my problems and animations in my application. He also guided me on how to play around with Action Scripts instead of having too many objects in one file. So, my application mouse event load with alot of Action Script 2.0. It actually makes my works lots easier.


Here are some of the SCRIPTS..

Work Place and Communication

As for me, I must the environment and also the work place in order for produce a good quality work.. Sometimes the environment and the workplace also influence my mood and ideas. So, in order to get the best ideas and the best work quality, I keep up the workplace as my way. :)

My workstation. 

My tablet

Me working 

My sketches and notes for myself. 

Tutorials... Hard to earn them for free nowdays.

http://www.gotoandlearn.com

Just wanted to share this tutorial page as this helps alot to generate ideas for my application. It has very good and basic Flash action scripts and its tutorial video.

Process

I am done with the process of editing photos/pictures and all materials for the application. Here is the print screen of the process.

Print Screen of editing photos under Fact & Rituals link. All the pictures are adjusted its hue, saturation, brightness and contrast to give it more colours as Indian Wedding resembles colours..

Here are the editing process for Gallery link.

Design, design and design..

Currently, I am working on the interface designs and also research on the coding. Coding is the hardest part of me as I find it hard. My interface design has to be more animations and interesting as it display information as it must  not be boring and lame. So, still on the porcess..
