Adobe After Effects

This software will become useful in our group work as we can use it to make schedules for each group member and to also make our plans forthe application. We will be able to use this to keep track of our work each week and plan what we need to do for the following.

This software will be useful when we are designing the characters, whether we want to draw them from scratch or edit them. We will also be able to use tools such as layers to create image backdrops for our characters to set more of a scene.

After effects will be a good software to use when we have our finishedscenes as we can add more effects and filters to them if we wish. We canadd effects to the images and scenes to then put all together in Flash.

We will use this software as an additional vector based image editing as weneed to work in vectors.

Audacity (or other music editing software)Audacity will be the software where we can edit audio, such as the music wewill provide in the application as well as voice-overs for the characters. This will be useful to remove any noise and trim the audio if need be.

Adobe FlashAdobe Flash will be the main software we use, especially when we have created our sources and ready to put them together to create the app. Flash also gives us the chance to use coding, and to also use the rotoscoping techniques to animate the characters.
