What are people studying on the bench?
I've been benched for a couple of weeks, but have high hopes from an interview on monday and another tomorrow.
I've been studying Flash and Actionscript for the last couple of weeks. But the snag is I suspect it's only one of a whole suite of related skills one needs to be saleable with it, being handy with Photoshop and animation packages for example, which I don't currently have. Still, it can't do any harm, and ActionScript itself along with AIR is primarily programming rather than the arty design side, in which I've never claimed any expertise.Tags: None
