Flash Based Designing & Development

Flash web sites today are being lead by Macromedia Flash design. Flash web pages are dynamic, highly graphic and full of multimedia content. The user is given more than just informational content. They are given an experience. At least they are if you have the right people designing your flash site.

Silicon BizTech has the "right people". We provide affordable flash web design without compromising quality. Our Flash web sites can be much more than a Flash only production. Flash is based on a file format called Shockwave. Shockwave files will play in a web browser if the browser has the Flash plug-in. Almost all browsers from version 3 onwards have this plug-in therefore almost all users can see a Flash movie running within a web page. Although Flash movies can run as a standalone exec file, they are often embedded within HTML pages. A movie can cover the whole web page or only a small part alongside normal HTML output.

A Flash movie can provide animation, sound and interactivity to a page. Text and graphic animation is possible with slide, zoom and fade effects. Movies can play in a linear fashion or can be directed to different scenes depending on a user's mouse movements. If movement is required in a web page, GIF files can be animated but there is a drawback. Since each frame of animation requires a separate image, the resulting file size needs to be very large and this slows download. With Flash, the animation is created in real time so very small file sizes are possible. With spectacular animation and interaction Flash is a clear winner over animated GIFs.

Flash is a tool that allows you to create rich internet content and applications - complex animations with built in interactive programming. Many clients use this type of design for the home page of their websites to display a more dramatic introduction to the company, and in fact you will find some websites on the web that are built entirely in Flash. The advantage of using Flash is that compared to other types of animations, a Flash animation will load relatively quickly and be able to achieve a level of interactivity not previously available.
