RE: FLASH: Text effect question

[Gavin Prior]

Hi,

Very simple - but time consuming.

*	make each letter an instance

*	take each letter and put it on it's own layer

*	enlarge the letter to a given size (larger than the original in this

case)

*	set the alpha to 50%

*	add a key frame 5 frames along and set the alpha to 0%

*	select all of the frames you have created and tween between


Now do this for every letter and space them out so it looks funky

Have fun!

:]me.
