I tried to submit it in the flash category it would have been a crystal clear screen capture. I tried with .swf and .flv formats but oh well.
I'll iron out the kinks by my next tutorial

okay good. Did i tell you flash is annoying? lol like making shapes and stuff in the actual program?

nobody makes stuff in flash, make your objects in illustrator or photoshop, make your animations in after effects, and import them over into flash.
just use flash for the keyframing and actionscripting

understandable
one thing I hate about video tutorials is the extra talking. I just like to know how to do something, straight to the point. But I don't know if I did that in this video, or if I did it toooo fast

I got my friends oppinion on it,
And he said that you should learn the tools a bit more since there's an easier way to do this apperently.
:U
and there are.
In my oppinion newbies would prolly be able to follow half if not all of it.

an easier way to do what exactly. I demonstrated multiple uses of layer masking as a supplement to the selection tools. Can your friend leave a comment?
