My first ever animations!

I downloaded Macromedia Flash MX early this morning and have spent the day playing around with it.

A days work has produced my first ever animations in Flash.

I drew everything, and recorded everything, and the picture in the Scary movie is of me...but it's a very old picture.

Anywho, here the both are, in all their animated glory.

Any constructive criticism will be welcomed with open arms.

I've never tried to work with flash, is it really hard?

Not particularly.

The program comes with mini tutorials and such, after that it's just a case of checking back every so often to see if you're doing it right.

And if ever you get stuck there's loads of tutorials and what not online.

lol the second one is hilarious

those were great lenny- do something real amazing and post it

Do something amazing, eh?

I've got the computer to myself all day tomorrow, so I should be able to churn something out.

Though what to do, that's the problem.

Everyone post some ideas, I'll see what I can do...

You should make a flash about Zelaron.

Nice.

I used to screw around in flash alot, never got any real movies finished though. I was mainly interested in frame by frame animation and just drawing everything by hand. I think I've still got some lame stick figure movement tests somewhere on my pc.

Def something involving Zelaron somehow.

like penguins old rpgmaker game with all zelaron cast.

Ya, as long as there's a Medieval Bob in the flash, it'll be a hit for sure.

Soul Harvester, a pretty 'famous' guy I knew from UO, made a flash a long time ago with Dead Bodies Everywhere as the background music, my main char (Medieval Bob) was in it. It was a super success. Point made. kthx

I remember making Chrono Trigger flash by using some video-capturing program. Those things were huge.

u used your fancy pentuim to do it tho, i had an amd at the time or i wouldve done it first you loser

The only Pentium I had was a 100 mhz original, and I didn't do it on that.

liar, you showed me your chrono videos and said you did it with some software that came with your pentuim

You're completely off base here. At best I can recall there being a program that was Intel software, but I didn't even use that because it required a Pentium.

Def something involving Zelaron somehow.

Agreed. Include me, haha.

Yes, make one about zelaron.

Of course.

Is that your voice I presume?

It is indeed.

Bad quality though. I need a microphone better than my Eye-Toy, and a good program to record it on.

----------

I'll try do some kind of Zelaron series. Each episode is about a different member.

For example the first episode could be "Zelaron: Meet the Crew", another could be "Mantralord: Stormslayer", "Dragoon Elite: Halo Fanatics", "Lenny: Illegal Alien".

I'm gonna try and dig out my old tablet as well today. Draw things left-handed with a pen rather than right-handed with a mouse.
