Overview

For the first time, Flash CS4 now offers some built-in 3D functionality that allows you to enhance your Flash animations and applications. In this video series, Flash guru, Craig Campbell, will walk you through the new 3D features of Flash and show you how to create some stunning visuals in the Flash timeline as well as in ActionScript.

Detailed Video Descriptions

  • 01 – Introduction (1:09)
  • 02 – The 3D Rotation Tool (5:09)
    The 3D Rotation Tool allows you to rotate objects around the x, y, or z axis.
  • 03 – The 3D Translation Tool (2:25)
    This tool allows you to move 2-dimensional objects around in 3D space.
  • 04 – 3D Position and View (11:36)
    In this video, Craig illustrates how to change the 3D properties of an object using options in the properties panel.
  • 05 – Animating 3D Rotation (4:12)
    In this lesson, Craig demonstrates how to create a simple animation of an object rotating around a 3D axis.
  • 06 – Motion Editor Adjustments (4:34)
    In this video, you’ll learn how to use the Motion Editor in order to gain control over your 3D rotation animations.
  • 07 – More Rotating Animations (9:51)
    In this video, you’ll learn how to create an animation of a text field with letters that rotate on a 3D axis.
  • 08 – 3D Anchor Points (3:23)
    By default, when you rotate an object in 3D space, the anchor point of that rotation is the center of the object. In this video, you’ll learn how to change that anchor point.
  • 09 – Creating a 3D Cube (13:04)
    In this video, you’ll learn how to arrange a few squares in 3D space in order to form a cube.
  • 10 – 3D Limitations (3:02)
    In this video, Craig discusses the main limitation of working with the 3D tools in Flash.
  • 11 – Two-Sided Objects (7:59)
    In this video, you’ll learn how to trick your viewers into thinking they’re seeing a two-sided object that rotates around the y axis.
  • 12 – Scrolling 3D Text (7:02)
    In this lesson, Craig demonstrates how to create a block of text that scrolls upwards at angle, such as at the beginning of the Star Wars movies.
  • 13 – 3D Text Block (6:02)
    In this video, Craig will demonstrate how to create a stack of 2-dimensional objects that looks like a 3D object.
  • 14 – 3D Coordinates in ActionScript (8:25)
    In this lesson, you will learn how to move an object around in 3D space using the x, y, and z properties in ActionScript 3.
  • 15 – 3D Rotation in ActionScript (8:08)
    This video takes a look at the rotationX, rotationY, and rotationZ properties, which allow you to rotate an object in 3D space.
  • 16 – Animating 3D Movement in ActionScript (8:54)
    In this video, you’ll learn how to animate the movement of an object in 3D space using ActionScript.
  • 17 – ActionScript Vanishing Points (12:20)
    Altering the vanishing point in your Properties Panel will do you no good if you intend to animate your 3D properties using ActionScript, so in this lesson, Craig will demonstrate how to alter (and animate) the vanishing point in ActionScript.
  • 18 – Animating 3D Rotation in ActionScript (10:51)
    In this video, you’ll learn how to animate the 3D rotation of an object with ActionScript.
  • 19 – Random 3D Particles (12:47)
    In this video, Craig will get started on a 3D particle effect by showing you how to attach multiple instances of the same movie clip to the stage at random x, y, and z coordinates.
  • 20 – Particles and Vanishing Points (5:16)
    In this lesson, Craig demonstrates how to animate the vanishing point of your particle effect so that it follows your mouse cursor around. This results in an amazing effect that really enhances the 3D feel of your particle field.
  • 21 – Starfield Effect (15:56)
    In this video, Craig demonstrates how to use ActionScript to create a particle effect with the particles moving closer to the “camera”, as though we were moving through a starfield.
  • 22 – Combining Effects (2:41)
    In this video, Craig combines the starfield effect with the moving vanishing point effect in order to create a stunning 3D effect that will wow your friends and clients.

Our Risk-Free Lifetime Money-Back
Guarantee

moneyback guarantee

Purchase as many videos as you like. If you discover that the videos do not completely and successfully train you on that subject, simply contact us anytime at support@technicallead.com and we will give you a complete refund.

Why such a generous guarantee? It is simple. We know how powerful the videos are and we know that they will help you. It is our way of assuring you that - in the case that you do not receive maximum benefit from the videos or if for whatever reason you are not completely satisfied - you won't have to pay for something you can't use.

However, you will never know until you try. That's why we are giving you as much time as you need to evaluate the videos. If they don't live up to your expectations you are not out a dime.


Option 1. Using 3D in Flash CS4 Complete Training Package - You can take advantage of our unique Flash training and mentoring system for just $597.00 $147.00. That's $450.00 off the regular price. This is the most complete training you will get anywhere!

Now Available: You can now order Option 1 in three easy monthly payments of $49.00!

All of the following items are included in this package:

1. You get a live webinar with one of our experts. ($200.00 Value) This is NOT a webcast where the communications go one-way. You will have an opportunity to interact with the presenter. This special event will be conducted in a two-hour segment with the instructor, live.

With the webinar, we bring the classroom training to you WITHOUT the travel cost of airfare, hotel, meals away from home, and car rental.

And the great thing about this is that you can attend the Flash webinar over and over, as many times as you like. It's all included with your tuition. Just think about being able to brush up on your Flash skills with a live instructor anytime you need to!

Our webinars are constantly being scheduled. We try to hold them at various times to meet the diverse needs of our customers. You may see which webinars are currently scheduled by clicking here:

Current Webinar Schedule

2. You also get the training videos available on-demand via instant download AND we will ship you the Using 3D in Flash CS4 videos on CD. ($197.00 Value) That's almost 2 hours of focused training that you can view anytime, as many times, as you like. This is the same content covered in the webinar and you'll have the information available whenever you need it.

3. About your secret weapon - your personal Flash mentor: ($97.00 Value) At any time, you can send an email to your mentor to help you resolve a question about using Flash. You can even send your Flash files, so he can diagnose the problem quickly and get you back on track.

This service is invaluable, because it can save you countless hours trying to solve a problem, not to mention the frustration we have all experienced trying to get Flash to work like it is suppose to. How many times have you been just 30 seconds away from putting your fist through the computer screen or tossing your keyboard across the room?

Well those days are over.

Now when you hit a roadblock, you can just take a deep breath, fire off an email to our experts and do something productive while we work on the solution.

With this complete training package, your mentor program is good for 30 days. Within those 30 days, you will have a total of 1 hour of email access to your Flash mentor.

4. ** BONUS ** ($97.00 Value) Web Design webinar entitled: "Building Websites With Real Value - How to Find Clients Who Will Gladly Pay You $10,000 Or More For Their Website"

Stop settling for $500 to $1000 web design projects and start making some real money. More importantly, start building a real business. You know, the kind that will allow you to take some time off and still have money coming in. The kind of business where you are building an asset that can be sold at some point in the future.

If you are tired of working long hours grinding away in front the computer just to make the same money as a Starbucks barista, then you will be very interested in the following information.

Each week I host a webinar where I show designers the exact skills you need to develop to take your business to the next level. For some, that means being able to go from part-time to full-time. How nice would it be to trade in your day job for a successful business where you call the shots. For others that is means getting your very first client.

I even show the pros how to grow their business. Just last week we had a guy that fit in that top 1% category. He is charging $30,000, on the low end, for a website. He was making more money than almost all of the other 22 attendees combined.

I opened his eyes to some new ideas, one of which has the potential to double his already successful business. That is the thing about the top 1% - they are always anxious to learn something new. He could have easily passed on the opportunity to attend the webinar based on his success, but there he was soaking up new ideas to grow his business.

How To Attend The Webinar

The webinar is a 1 hour presentation plus a live Q and A session. Most of these sessions last two hours or more.

We use Webex to facilitate the webinars. This allows you to watch and listen to the live presentation via the web. We use the chat feature to create a very interactive experience. I am constantly asking questions and polling the audience. This has resulted in some great sessions allowing you to learn from other attendees also.
