I have 2 questions about Flash:

1. Can you create animations with Flash and put them on a CD?
2. Can you make a Flash movie into an MPEG?

Is their another program which can do this?

Thanks,

1. Yes

2. Yes

And Yes, Shockwave. And there are some other multimedia programs like Live motion from Adobe (less scripting options though).

hehe oki oki..

1. Yes, just make sure that you include everything into your flash movie and export it to either a flash movie file or an exe file. Burn on cd. Voila.

2. Yes, you can play the file and record it with certain software programs,but it is a bit tricky. Much better to let Flash play the thing for you.

Shockwave is Flashīs big brother and is better with support for cd projects, bitmap graphics and such. A very big program with ALOT of possibilities.

So could I make a short movie (say 1 minute) on a country..and its environment etc. and put it onto a CD so other people could watch it without Flash?

Another thing..(quite important [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) is it hard to use?

Yes, as the flashmovies you see on the internet, all you need is the player which you are allowed to burn on the same file. (Mostly for Macīs that donīt support the exe files.)

If you have a PC audience, just make an .exe file from the export menue and they are ready to go.

Good, so the people viewing (on a PC) don't need flash..*sigh of relief* Do they watch it through Explorer or a movie player?

Do you have Flash and is it hard to use?

If used as a .exe file it opens itīs own little application and runs.

Yes I have it, and well it depends on what you will use it for, and how used to the interface and terminology you are. The help is really good in the program though.

</font>[/QUOTE]That would cool! It doesn't matter about the Swedish. I just want to see what people can do with Flash.

As I said before I have to do an animation/movie on a country say..England.
I want to show pictures of England..with funky Flash stuff and music and stuff like that. Would somthing like this be hard to do?

Thanks,

Oh yeah I'm getting Flash 6 MX. Does this make a difference or are they pretty much all the same [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

WOLFGIR 09-06-2002 03:58 AM

Hmm, on the first account, making a Flash with sound and some animations for showing a work. No real problems, as soon as you have done the basic training in the Flash tutorials you will have no real problems with this.

And well Flash 6 MX is a bit different then version 5.
The new layout is bit tricky to get into, but after three hours, you will hate version 5.

The concept is still the same though.

Good luck.

Thanks [img]smile.gif[/img]
