Reviews for "The Big Fat Tutorial"
Helbereth responds:
Heh, thanks. I felt everyone needed to know this stuff and nobody was telling them how to do it. It seems to me like advanced flash artists have an aversion to telling anyone how they do their stuff - which is sad, really. Participating in the brain drain is one thing. Being the cause of the brain drain is something far more sinister.
Nice!
Sweet, thats all that needs to be said...
Helbereth responds:
Thanks.
Simple reviews are the hardest to respond to...
Would anyone mind explaining that?
Extremely Helpful and Easy to Understand
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.
Helbereth responds:
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!
Thus idst the best!
This game has taught me alot about flash that I didnt know before.
Awesome
Totally the best!Im a beginner when coming to flash and this helped me a whole lot.
The only problem is, I can't seem to get the camera to work. Could you help me?
