tutorial movie - how to animate a character in flash
« on: December 25, 2006, 04:08 AM »
Came across this today...

http://www.adobe.com...imate_character.html

If you've got a free hour it's worth looking at to get a good idea of animating a character in flash.

I'm pleased to see that what I did is pretty much the right way of doing it. I had been wondering if I was doing things the wrong/slow way but if it's good enough for Chris George then it's good enough for me. (check out his website www.mudbubble.com or blog www.keyframer.com)

He does have a few good tips that I think will help the next version of cody's animation.

i may dig deeper into flash and actionscript and will post my findings here - if they seem of worth.

here's the link to the cody animation pack i did https://www.donation...88.msg46862#msg46862 i'll probably use that same thread to post updates to the cody animation that can then be downloaded and used by anyone.

anyone know of any more movie tutorials for flash character animation (and game design)?

i like to learn via movies and haven't really come across any in this category.
