free sounds

you will need sound and you should start using them from the beginning of your flash movies EVEN if it isn't the exact "perfect" one. Get something in there and then switch out the sound when you find the "perfect" one. To find sounds, besides what is on the server you can google free sounds or try these
a1freesoundeffects.com/
simplythebest.net/sounds/
freesound.org
partnersinrhyme.com/pir/PIRsfx.shtml
soundsnap.com/

NOTE: we have quicktime pro in the lab, if the sound is a quicktime movie just click on the arrow and save the file onto the desktop/yourfiles/your media device...

concept statements

some of you had one for project 2 some of you didn't. but none of you nailed a concept. for the next project lets start back at the beginning a concept statement is...a memorable statement that tries to capture the "essence" your project, particularly its uniqueness. It can be regarded as a global goal or motto that provides the reader with an orientation point during the whole design process, just as a lighthouse serves as an orientation point for ships during the night. the concept statement is a short, descriptive, and easy-to-remember phrase that tries to capture the intention or purpose of your project.

concept statements please start of with
1) a comparison
making fake blood is like
or scaring someone with fake blood is like
building a tree swing is like
or swinging on your tree swing is like

0r
2) a quote/motto, phase...

start with one of those 2 ways and you will be in better shape concept wise.
