"Extremely Helpful and Easy to Understand"

by: Errate
date: May 30, 2005

I'm a beginner to Flash, and of all the tutorials I've seen, this is one of the most helpful. The step by step procedures were easy to follow, and the presentation was well delivered. All in all I give it a big, fat 5/5.

Author's Response:

Thanks, I did try to make it as comprehensible as possible. The presentation actually came last... Origiinally all the tuts had the same bland, pale green background. But I thought I should include some things that you could create with some of the knowledge being imparted... so I made better backgrounds, made the airplane, created the rather complex credits (timed to music and everything), scripted a few events into the tuts...

I actually used a bunch of skills that are not explained in this. I did a fair amount of fbf with the shadowy leaping guy and the explosion is all fbf (except the smoke after the explosion... that's a masked shape tween).

When i get around to making the Bigger Fatter Tutorial (planned for January 2006), I'll go into that stuff more, delve into scripted camera techniques, probably create some fully formed characters made for tweening... all that stuff.

Anyway, I'm babbling. Thanks for the review!

"Very informative"

date: May 30, 2005

The title does it justice. It's big, it's fat, and it's a tutorial. Good job.

Author's Response:

I named it that when it started getting out of hand.

I originally started with just 3 tutorials, but then I added 3 more... then all the peripheral stuff and it just kept building and.... well let's just say I had to release it so I could get my life back...

Thanks for the review!

I may have not have gotten my flash 2004 yet, but this sure will come in handy when I start as a Flash Artist.

Author's Response:

Well I hope it does. Remember if you're a student you can get MX 2004 for $100 (rather than $500). You can't make money with it as a student, but oh well.

Author's Response:

When I was learning flash my biggest problem was the incoherent tutorials out there that only explain half of what they show you, and don't even do a half-ass job at that.

I'm likely making a series of these, but I hope I can keep the quality up.

"This helped me out alot"

date: May 28, 2005

thanks this helped me out alot with
the scripted camera that was very helpfull

i gave you 1 for violence for the airplane :)

this is a great tutorial

Author's Response:

Thanks, I try. What I'd like to see is the inclusion of that camera as part of an updated version of flash. It's like a program utility.

Aah the airplane... so pointless... but so necessary.

Thanks for the review!

"Great"

date: May 27, 2005

That was really awesome but in the fairy tutorial i couldnt get the moition between the slides to make the fairy pulse

Author's Response:

You mean the gradient pulse? That's a shape tween, not a motion tween. Down in the properties bar when you click on the keyframe there's a drop-down menu for shape, motion or no tween. You can't shape tween objects and you can't motion tween drawings.
