So I ran a search on Lycos and ended up in Macromedia's flash support web where I learned about the flash concept. We strive to develop innovative ways of delivering information to the customer in an accessible and readily understandable form. In essence, delivering the information they want, when they want it. This ultimately puts more control in the hands of the user, which in turn fosters trust. Gaining trust is critical, especially in e-business solutions.
Sound concepts are every flash developer's nightmare.
Creating the effects we wanted without choppy motion forced us to develop techniques that in some cases required very meticulous planning. Conceiving an original concept however, is always the greatest challenge. We took special care in stylizing the animation so it had a different feel than typical flash websites. The idea of a sphere wreaking havoc on the site elements and leading the viewer through the flow of the animation, we feel was a very original concept for the introduction of a flash site. There was so much more we wanted to do with the little black sphere and sound effects, but we had to set boundaries with regards to download time.
