Animated and interactive content - in development

Developing animated and interactive content for your website or course requires careful selection of the appropriate production tools. Simple animated GIFs are easy to produce, but limited in functionality. Macromedia Flash provides a range of functions from simple vector-based animation to advanced interactivity through ActionScript. More advanced interactivity, such as database integration, requires development of web applications through a programming tool such as ColdFusion.

A tutorial module examining production and delivery issues for animation and interactivity is currently under development.
