Need to develop a movie of a faux-website with slide-out/pop-up menus (i.e. clicking on the “notifications” button on facebook or any flash website)
I have all the PNG’s that make up the "website", and now just need to make a flash-like movie of someone using it.
Would prefer to make the animations of the website (i.e. a side bar expanding, a notification popping up) while being able to go back and change the actual PNGs involved in the animations later.
From people I have asked so far, I have been pointed to Scriptalicious and JQuery. I don’t know code, so Jquery looks pretty intimidating. I am willing to learn and believe I could get a good grasp on it if I really try, but I am just checking to see if there is anything out there.
One thing I have noticed is Adobe Flash Catalyst…where it says you can build animations without coding, but I don’t know that much about it, and if it supports the idea of going back and eventually changing the PNGs like I would prefer.
And what would be REALLY great, is if I could make the “movie” interactive, like a real flash thing (click a button and then have the animation occur)…but I’m cool with just making a .flv or something if I have to.
So in a jist, my questions are:
What program/platform can I use? (Flash, Java, anything else available?)
Would I be able to go back and edit the PNG’s involved?
How should I go about to make the actual movie once it is complete?
