Clickable Advertising Banner FlashMay 31, 2005
Software: SwishMax
Ref: http://www.tokyorent.com
This is a simple banner I put together for a property management company here in Tokyo. They specialize in rental apartments for foreigners including English language teachers and IT professionals.
As usual, the design took a lot longer than the implementation. The Flash design was done using SwishMax. The text, including the Japanese kanji characters were converted into shapes – primarly because of concerns that viewers of the ad might not have the same character fonts installed on their systems. The total file size is slightly over 20k.
