Hey Actionscripters,
Basically my current art project is on movement and I'd like to do something interactive with Flash, similar to some of UVA's work (http://www.uva.co.uk/), in particular their "Contact" installation in Japan (video can be seen here (http://www.uva.co.uk/wp/wp-content/proj ects/contact/ContactWebMovie.mov)).
My aim is to create an interactive artwork piece in my school that people can come and view and be involved in, so when they in front of the camera/webcam their movements are displayed as art on the screen.
Now, I'm not a good scripter and I don't know enough AS to do this by myself (or I wouldn't be asking :P), so I was wondering if it's possible for you to help me out and do the code for me.
Basically I would need you to make a range of different effects (3 or 4 are needed but as many as possible if you have time) that interact with the user. For example one might be a screen full of squares and when walked in front of the squares would change colour, another may be blocks would appear and random directionally push eachother out the way. Another may be to have trails coming off showing movement, or another blurred glows start from the movement and flow outwards etc, the more creative the better, and the more interation with other objects that have been created by other people walking past/dancing around the better (so things bouncing off eachother/changing colour on collision and stuff would be awesome).
I would need each version seperate, and then one version which just went through each effect and changed every x number of seconds.
I would then edit movieclips and insert some sexy art to go along with it, but all on a black background (so the actual camera feed of people moving about isn't shown), so it's just the actual code that would put the movieclips on stage, and add a little interation so they'd bounce off eachother and stuff is mainly what I need. There's a code that would be a good starting point (found here (http://ffiles.com/flash/particle_effect s/spamyboy_fire_353.html)). I have the source for that, so if you're able to help just give me a shout and I'll be able to sort you out with it.
I can't offer money for it because I'm not going to be making anything from it, but obviously you'll be credited for it (it's for college so if I used your work without crediting you for the code I'd be kicked out of all my exams, so I have no intention of using your script without due credit), and I could return the favour if you needed some design work/CSS/HTML work doing later on (so services in return rather than $$$).
But I think it would be a good project and I'd much apreciate it if you could help, also timescale wise I have about 2-3 weeks so not an incredible hurry,
If you can help out, with anything at all, please send me a PM or ask here and I'll drop you a line over MSN/email!
And no, I'm not asking you to completely do my project, I'll be doing all of the art for it and I have to do tonnes of other shit as well, just unfortunately I don't have the time to learn actionscript in such a short space of time to be able to make it myself otherwise I most happily would.
Thanks!
