FLASH: re new web site

[Perry Steve]

Hi Steve Kim


I'm replying via the list as I couldn't get through to your email address


Thanks for your comments - much appreciated as this is my first attempt at a

Flash web site.


The site uses two movies.  Level 0 has the 3d logo and the title at the

bottom.  Level 1 has all the rest of the stuff.  Level 1 is developed around

lots of movie clips controlled from the main time line - these MC's are all

preloaded by the preloader (controlled from level 0) so that when the main

navigation buttons become active all content is there.  I'm not sure this is

the best way to go as I have seen a lot of sites that just load a section

when it is selected. If all sections are kept reasonably small I think this

is a good way to go an example of this is the control group site at

http://www.the-control-group.com.


Like other people I would love to know how they converted the video for that

site as I would like to use some 3d fly throughs on my site?. 


The logo was built in Corel as a 2d then each element was extruded to the

same level.  The outer ring was constructed and then each element put into

place.  I then exported the whole thing as a wmf file and imported into

Flash.  Here i re shaded all elements as flash shading seems much better and

more efficient than any other drawing package.  


Hope this helps
