After the success and feedback from the first edition last year (sold out twice in London and Geneva) and the recent European tour (in 12 cities across 10 countries), this workshop will be running now in Beijing. It's really great to know that so many people without a coding background really enjoyed it, and some are even taking it a few steps further.
The approach will be relaxed and fun (and effective): attendees will build a simple game from scratch in this ONE DAY INTENSIVE WORKSHOP, and will learn several advanced concepts and useful tricks along the way. No previous coding (or even Flash) knowledge needed at all. No scary technical jargon will be used to make things sound complex, because they are not.
ACTIONSCRIPT 3 is the ideal language to learn how to program, specially thanks to how easy it is to use and manipulate images and graphic elements, and adding interactivity.
The approach will be in the most accessible way, actually without computers in the first hour, using attendees on stage to explain in a practical way how a program works and "enact" concepts like variables, objects, functions, loops and conditions. Then, it's hands-on and the pace will progressively get more and more interesting.
Everything you will build can be deployed in your computer, the web and even MOBILE DEVICES (iPhone, iPad, Android and BlackBerry). You’ll take all that code with you and can experiment further on your own. And you’ll be guided on how to go further and presented with a lot of useful resources.
Duration: Around 8 hours, depending on the group rhythm, no-one is left behind. Everyone will learn A LOT about ActionScript3, and of course, coding, which can be applied to other languages apart from AS3.
This is a bring-your-own-laptop practical course, but while not optimal, two attendees can share the same laptop. Workshop language will be English.
