Introduction
Hey guys! This is my Investigate page, here you can see all my researches and works about the procedure on how I will start my Flash animation. First, I looked in hallmark site about e-card, just to know what is an e-card looks like, and then, I did a research and a brainstorm/mind map. So, this is it, you can just look over it and enjoy my Investigate page!

ESLR
I believed that I achieved some ESLR like being Critical Thinker and Self-Directed Learner. When I'm doing this Investigate activity, I looked over those e-card examples, and then I gathered and analyzed those ideas from the examples. I learnt new ideas, but before I learnt that, I first challenged myself to face new responsibility as a student to develop my skills by learning new things by myself.

My Brainstorm
Here you can see my brainstorm about the birthday of my sister, the father's day for my dad, and the birthday for my good friend Mitchell. I've done this by using the application Inspiration.



My Tutorial
media type="custom" key="77620" This is my tutorial using Flash. So, here you can see the text that says "Happy Birthday!". I used basic tools to make an animation.

My Reflection
Over all we have done in the Flash animation e-card, we have discovered different tools and different ideas about Flash. I can use all of techniques that I’ve learned in Flash to make such wonderful e-cards. Then if I can do that I will share it to my beloved family, like we’ve done in my research, brainstorm, and practice. However, if I can share it, I can make an excellent e-cards and I can make my family to be surprised and proud of me. I believe that if I did that, I can be a good example to my younger sisters. I can teach them such good ways how to make a good e-cards. I want my e-cards interesting and not very bleak. I want them to be content with me and to show that I did a hard work to learn that ideas came from my subject in computer, especially my teacher. So, that’s how I can apply all things that I’ve learned from Flash.

I will create the Father’s Day from the brainstorm, because I want to show my love to my father, because he is the one who work very hard for us. So, I want to thank him for the love and care that he gave us, although sometimes we were not listening or following his orders that make us better. In creating the e-card I will include different criteria that makes my e-card good, like colorful ideas that can attract the audience, understandable so it can easily understand, the length not too short and not too long, simplicity the e-card is simple not so complicated but interesting, and audio/music that can enhance the e-card.
