     We probably won't do any Flash until February.  The early part
of the class will focus on Adobe After Effects.

     The class will be about 90% Adobe After Effects and 10% Flash, but
they will complement each other very nicely.  Once you understand
KFs (Keyframes) and Timelines in one application, you will understand
and be effective with them 5 or 10 times faster in the other application.
