Flash Movie

[Emperor Harkonnen]

Okey, I have made a commandos flash movie, which lasted for 11 min.

now I am considering to make a Dune flash movie, which lasts about the same time as the commandos movie.

What do you guys think of this(and I have not yet decided if I am gonna make it)??

[exatreide]

depends....on the qaulity.....and what it is about.

[Timenn]

Well, Flash is never video quality, but it keeps small-sized. And you can do alot with it.

I think it's nice if there is such movie. So you have me as support :)

Damn, I have Flash somewhere here on my computer, but didn't got around to it to learn it

[quoudam72]

Which software are you using to make your flash movie Macromedia or one of the other software programs?

[Emperor Harkonnen]

Macromedia, I have learned myself that one. even though there are easier programs to make it with, I prefer macromedia since that is the only one I know how to handle.

Thanks Timenn, nice to have some support.

Does anyone know where to get something like picture of characters for my movie?

I probably won't be able to make them move with animation, so it will be something like south park I make.

I'm planning to do a flash movie too about dune. Still, it would be a sarcastic view of Quebec and the rest of Canada based on Dune :)

With those wast desert of snow.... Harkonnen (federal fovwernement, red) Atreides quebec governement, blue), and such :)

I just have to do some good ddrawings though.... :)

And no, I,m not racist, it will be an HUMORISTIC view of all of that....

Hehe, didn't Quebec just ban margerine that isn't white? They were saying something about it on the radio this morning. Damn those French. ;)

[exatreide]

probebly out of fear of the margerines growing military might... :P

[AlteaDeo]

looooooool, yeah that's right :) (would be good to include in the scenario some where.... :P)

yeah, those guyz producing butter and milk got ferustrated because "some people will buy margarine because it's yellow like butter"... Geez, I know that the average people here maybe not that quick on consommation some times, but damnit, they can do the difference between margarine and butter.... (Just by the price and the size actually, lol).

But, thinking about it, I would also try to include in the scenarion somewhere the fact that we can't reclaim prizes we win over the internet.... That makes me mad so much some times.... :)

[Emperor Harkonnen]

But anyway does anyone have any links or would I have to find it myself?

[AlteaDeo]

but what do you want exactly?

link to flash's sites?

link to infos of Dune?

what?

[Emperor Harkonnen]

Dune, I need dune stuff. backgrounds, pictures of characters and sounds.

and also I would need a place to upload my movie, in addition to voice actors when it is required.

[AlteaDeo]

well, webspace wouldn't be a problem with me, if it's not too large... Still, if you do a flash movie, may I suggest you to draw your things? :) Would be better, and lower in space...

if you want dune stuff, go in google.com and type "Dune" +"Frank Herbert" +"Movie"

(with all the + and "")

the, you click on image and you do the same thing!

[Emperor Harkonnen]

Thanks buddy. well it is gonna be kinda large, cos I got a lot of music 'n' stuff. an if I draw the pictures would look lame

[Acriku]

Drawing is easy on flash. If you go to my site, I drew a good-looking mosquito and dog/wolf. Just takes a long time to get it right. Mosquito took me damn near 2 hours - and I was looking at a real picture for reference!

[AlteaDeo]

well, if it's large, use my trick!

host the file on a lycos like site and link it from your main web site :)

as for drawing in flash, like Acriku said, that fairly easy, just place your pic on the background, and draw over it. Srue it may look childish, that's drawing, but sometimes, it's doing better "effect" then real pics!

[Timenn]

Well, Flash is more meant for website animation and cartoon animations. The disadvantage of Flash working with vectors instead of pixels make that you can't work with photo's.

[Acriku]

Well you could technically work with them, you just can't manipulate them as you would with a vector graphic. But you can break apart a photo and edit it as you wish, ahhh Flash rules :)

[Emperor Harkonnen]

Yeah....I think I'll stick to the way I do it. I don't know much about that internett hosting stuff

[AlteaDeo]

yeaaaaaaaaah! flash rules :)

[Emperor Harkonnen]

of course it does! :)

[AlteaDeo]

drawing on flash rules!!!!

(now what will you say, eh? :P)

[Emperor Harkonnen]

nah I think it is kinda fun, but I need better pictures when I am not making a movie which is meant to be funny

[AlteaDeo]

awwwwwwwwwwwwww :-

[Emperor Harkonnen]

But I just made a small movie, which I only had one picture, of a face, in.
