Project Update

Things are going well with my internship project. It took a little longer than I expected to get the recordings (notes) from my site supervisor. We had a little problem getting the recordings to upload from his computer. While we were trying to resolve that, I spent a good deal of time trying to build my graphics skills. I found several resources Ai Vault, Bitt Box and Lynda.com The first two were free. I subscribed to Lynda.com for $25 per month. So far, it has been well worth. I can watch videos on whatever I need.

I've divided the notes from my site supervisor into about four or five topics that will become the modules. The nice thing about having him record the notes with the pen is that he's pretty much drawn out what each "lesson" should look like. The drawings are fairly simple, so I feel like with the skills that I am gaining in Illustrator, I'll be able to reproduce the drawings with no problem.

The next thing that I will need to do is finalize the decision about how these lessons will be built. Right now, Flash is the front runner. I think it will be easiest to have the audio created first. Then I can adjust the animation to what is being said.

The next thing to be done is to make some solid decisions about the design of all of this.
