\"Day<\/a><\/p>\n

Lots of stuff happening, swirling around the glass, catching the light. I like it when my brain is occupied, and I like it even more when lots of different parts of my brain are occupied. Less risk of grey-matter atrophy then. <\/p>\n

Tonight I spent a hefty portion of time reacquainting myself with Flash, after a multi-week hiatus. Lucky me, I got to dink with Flash 4 rather than the Flash 2 I was “trained” in. At first, as the frustration fermented, I wanted to feel the crush of my fist against my dainty little LCD computer screen, but eventually I figured out what I needed to figure out (thank God for actually helpful Adobe tutorials) and I found myself finally at the exact Square One at which I needed to be. Which means it’s all uphill from here, baby.<\/p>\n

So check it out \u2014 my first solo Flash animation project:<\/p>\n

Sunset: My first real Flash animation<\/a> from Lindsey Turner<\/a> on Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Clearly I’m not doing something right because it’s moving soooooo slow. Way slower than it should. I think it’s a frame-rate problem. ?! This link<\/a> is slightly better but there are still issues with the spastic little bird’s wingflapping, which shouldn’t act so crazy there near the end.<\/p>\n

I don’t know but I’m happy to know that I am at least on my way to figuring this stuff out. <\/p>\n
