Reviews for "Specialeffects with flash"
Holy crap
this shit takes long to load i think the preloader doesn't work. Ill give it a 5 becuase of the mystery of whats its inside thogh.
Nice idea.
I was actually thinking about something like this myself...
I quite like the fact that you've used real video footage (or photos, or whatever).
However, the integration of the laser and the fire are quite poor.
Also, a bit more of a plot/joke is needed.
Just like Star Wars.....
Hint: If you really are trying to do special effects, you might want to play around with discreet's Combustion or Adobe After Effects. They're both professional level programs, but since you imported the video anyway, I assume your at least somewhat computer savy. The least I can say is, if your deadset on FX in Flash, you may want to play around more with alpha transparency and timing key frames. Other than that, I'm really not sure what to tell you....
What the fuck was that
I find it hard to be impressed by remedial Flash like this. If you're going to have someone shooting a laser, don't make it look like the laser was drawn in MS Paint. That would be a good start.
While the integration of video was good, you could have tried to make it funny. Otherwise, this movie has the point of a blunt pencil.

This was a test of sorts. I guess I could have made a story behind it. when I put this up I had not seen anyone putting video in a flash. It was more about doing that than anything. Thank you for the review.
