Interactive Scripting

This course is designed for digital media designers who need to integrate advanced control management and interactivity into their media applications. Students will gain a fundamental knowledge of a popular scripting language for making media applications that users can interact with. The focus of the course is on using pre-designed models and functions in industry-standard software that embed the scripting language to create interactivity involving graphics, audio, video, animation and other media elements. Students will use creative and logical thinking while completing three major projects concerning animation, game, and Web site design. The concepts, principles, and steps of interaction design will be introduced and applied to the projects.
