Team Event Horizon:

A constantly evolving project, our flash interactive started out as a simple test of visitor's knowledge. After two weeks of editing and brainstorming, our final product became a personality type quiz in the same vein as those found on MySpace and Facebook (though perhaps, slightly more educational). Developing questions and answers that were at the same time informative and unbiased proved to be a challenge. Karen and Chris spent hours writing and rewriting questions then presenting them to the public to test their effectiveness. While Karen and Chris prototyped the questions, Tim and Niki developed a flash template into which the questions and videos could be placed. This also proved to be a challenge, pushing the limits of Tim's action script knowledge. After two weeks of fighting with the text and the code, we finally have a product we are proud of.
