Building Advanced Animations in Flash
Building Advanced Animations in Flash focuses on advanced animation techniques for users who already have some knowledge of Flash animation. It covers the advanced animation features of the timeline, how they can be used for creating different animation, and some tips and tricks. The book covers the Motion Editor and explains how one can use it to create realistic animation through different easing curves.
Also, the book covers the process of creating animation using AS3 with basic examples of using codes to create code-based animation without using the timeline. Then the book moves on to explain converting Flash animation to HTML5 using Adobe Wallaby, the restrictions during this process and tips how to avoid them.
In the third part the book I will cover exporting animation as video for the web, DVD and devices that use the Flash Export video and the Flash Media Encoder.
