Jack and the Beanstalk

The actionscript does not work, having a lot of issues! it jumps around and looks ridiculous but you should still be able to follow the storyline...

Project 4 – Open Exploration

Overview

Your last project is open. Your stage may be any size/pixel dimensions and your frame rate should be at least12 frames per second, but may be more. To receive full credit, the project must be finished (no works-in-progress) and must include at least all of the following elements:

1 Preloader
2 Interactivity
3 Frame-by-frame animation (this can include stop-motion)
4 Shape or Motion Tween


Suggested Ideas

Possible projects and examples include:

Narrative Animation

Art Portfolio

Game

Children’s Site/Game

Instruction/Educational

Experimental

Typographic

General Inspiration

Process

Statement. Write a brief (less than one page) description of what your final project will be (this must be typed). You’ll also want to include in your sketchbook a rough sketch, storyboard or site map. We will discuss these in class.

Storyboard/Illustration/Site-Map. Then create a refined storyboard and/or site-map and illustration (this will be determined on an individual basis). Your storyboard/illustration/site-map must also include information about sound, narration, and actions for each the frame as applicable. If you’re doing a storyboard, remember to have one separate frame for every “cut” in your storyboard. The storyboard should be stapled or paper-clipped together when you hand them and each page should be no bigger than 8.5 x 11.

Dummy. As with the last project, create the ActionScript "skeleton" of your project, including preloader, code for movie clips treated as buttons, etc.
