Visualization of Multi-Storey Building Visitor Guide Animation By Optimizing Macromedia Flash MX of Action Script Functions and 3D Max Studio (Study: Engineering Faculty Building, Muhammadiyah University of Yogyakarta)

Yogyakarta Muhammadiyah University (UMY) has 7 faculties, divided into 5 zones, namely the north zone, the west zone, the south zone, the east zone, and the middle zone. The Faculty of Engineering (FT-UMY) occupies the north zone. The problem is how one knows the location, position, and function of the room in the building, because every educational institution has many buildings, the shape of the building the same/similar, each building is occupied by many faculties, and has a large number of rooms. The concept of Visualization or Visual Communication Design was used to solve the problem, Visualization or Visual Communication Design is the study of communication concepts and creative expressions, techniques and media to convey messages and ideas visually, such as pictures, audio, video by processing graphic design elements . The Software/Tools used are Macromedia Flash MX and 3D Max Studio by utilizing and creating animation and visualization data base information systems with simple action script commands, generating visitor guide software has input data, namely: 1 faculty button and has 4 search buttons, i.e., find the lecturer button, find a room, search for majors, and find employee button. Has 4 output data consisting of: View (side view, rear view, and front view), path, floor plan, and building.
