Mobile Animation Challenge 2008, Singapore

This national mobile animation challenge is targeted at secondary school students for the purpose of engaging them to create promotional clips on the mobile platform. Participants are required to assemble original and relevant media contents to create a promotional clip of not more than 30 seconds, based on the following theme:

“Living in an Green Island”

Tell us how life will be different in an energy-efficient future. The National Energy Policy Report (available at http://www.mti.gov.sg) outlines some policies that can lift Singapore’s energy efficiency. Can infocomm technologies help us to do more with less energy? Assemble an animation clip on a mobile platform of not more than 30 seconds to tell us how this can be done.

If the phone is faulty, usually it will be reflashed if it is a software problem. If it is hardware, the parts will be replaced. You will be able to get assistance at the Nokia Care Center.

Hi sushi12,

Mobile Animation is to use Adobe Flash software to create a FlashLite animation to download to a Nokia handphone to display.
