Re: FLASH: Animation in Buttons

[Skye]

I am learning Flash and have a relatively good grasp on what I've learned 

thus far. I want to move on to more advanced projects, but have a question

or 2 before I can do some of the things I want to do.


1.  How is the mouseover motion blur effect created over time as in the menu

on the right side of http://www.e3direktiv.com/main.html


and the intro to macromedia's flash gallery (the bouncing motion blurred

F3G) at http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/gallery/


2.  From what I understand, you can't bring digital video (quicktimes) into

Flash as you can in director.  However, some of the shockwave projects at

http://www.hillmancurtis.com/site3/contents.html seem to do just that, and

have amazingly small shockwave file sizes.  My guess is that what appears to

be digital video is a GIF animation exported from a once-digital video and

then the GIF imported into Flash.(?)  Even if this is the case, how do the

file sizes stay so low with the bitmap images imported?


Thanks in advance for any assistance.


Cheers,


Skye
