Is this effect done in Flash

Take a look at the first couple of frames in the following video. Elements in the images seem to be standing apart from each other, rather than flat,
as they would be in a normal photograph (the people in the crowd scene, for example). You often see this effect used on old black and white images in presentations or documentaries on the History channel. In some WW One documentaries, you'll see soldiers going over the top of a trench and the men closest to the camera appear to be on a different plane than those further into the field.
I'd like to know how this effect is accomplished, and if it's done in Flash or Photoshop. Are there any tutorials available on creating this effect?
Thanks.

the animation is done in flash but the editing of one image into several images, each containing different image planes, is done in a photo editor like photoship.

  • How was this effect done?

    Can someone help me with how this was created. The 3D look of the states coming out of the map? Also the sides look cut too.
    Thanks

    If you want to end up wanting to kill yourself, just try doing that in Illustrator. That was probably done using a program that has more than Illustrator’s pathetic 3D effects. The biggest problem you will have is that Illustrator can only model one object at a time. You can extrude an outline of Florida and be happy with the result, but once you try using different extrude height for different states you will see the problem.
    Illustrator cannot model a “scene”, meaning all objects exist within one 3D universe with the same lighting, perspective, and vanishing points. Painstaking trial and error will be needed to get each state to look correct in relation to all the other states. Also, Illustrator extrudes from the centre out, so suing different extrude heights will mean the bottoms of each state are not aligned to the same surface. Fixing that will also take a lot of trial and error. best of all, once the bases of the states are nice and aligned, the perspective consistency will be off because you had to move everything.
    Conclusion: If this was done in Illustrator, it was not done using and 3D effects. It was done using talent and experience.

  • Can this be done with flash

    I need to generate a chart using flash or flex (im not sure
    which) on the
    server side and output it as a jpg?
    can this be done? can somebody point me to the right
    direction
    Thanks,
    Tem

    You mean using data from the server? Flash, and Flex, run
    client side, but
    can pull data from a server - and make a graph. I don't know
    Flex, but it
    wouldn't be too hard in Flash. AS3 is better for outputting
    as a JPEG, but
    it can be done in AS2 as well.
    There are many tutorials for loading data into Flash, just
    Google things
    like 'Flash XML' or 'Flash Database'. I'd also recommend
    looking at AMFPHP
    http://www.amfphp.org/) an
    alternative to Flash remoting that makes calling
    server-side functions, and passing data, a snap.
    For image export, search on 'Flash image output' - here's one
    to get you

  • Nice alpha text reveal. How is this effect done?

    I want to do a nice alpha reveal with text and particles as in this trailer for the film Lovely Mollie here: http://www.filmweb.no/trailere/article453327.ece
    How is this done? I'm guessing a liberal use of Trapcode form, but how is the text revealed? I'm thining maybe an alpha matte but is there an easy way of doing this type of effect.
    Any help appreciated!
    Cheers

    Thanks guys, I've tried out the roughen edges before but need to get the middle of the letters alpharing out too, and of course the text to sand tuts.
    Cheers!

  • Hi all new here. Newb question...can this be done with flash?

    Hi everyone hoping you can help a newb like me out. Thanks in advance for your time. I am trying to make a video exactly like this.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbMOTNI8tcE
    I know in the video it implies he uses a light control thing but I think he is really just animating the cartoon. I just want to animate a "line cartoon" like this one. Can I do this in flash? Its not for a website just like a movie type thing. I have access to pretty much all the other adobe software at my school so if I need to use a different program I can do that. Just looking for someone to point me in the right direction and maybe give some tips on how to go about it. Thanks.

    open flash and you'll see a timeline with frames (that are all empty when you start).  draw something on the stage.  that will be in frame 1.  right click on frame 10 and click insert keyframe.  your drawing will be in frame 10 now.  double click your drawing to select all of it, move your mouse off and then over the select drawing and then drag it to the right and release.  right click between frame 1 and frame 10 and click motion tween.  test your movie.
    now start playing with flash to see what you can do.  you're not going to learn how to create your animation by asking questions.
    you can get help getting started but you now have enough info to get started.  you can get more help if and when you encounter problems.

  • How would I emulate this effect (the Photoshop flash Website)

    Hi there,
    I'm wondering how to create this 3D effect as seen on the adobe website.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/family/?promoid=BPDEK
    I want to simulate the 3D rotate effect with some images of a product I have. I'm fairly new to 3D compositing in AE and I'm wondering if maybe someone could point me the direction a proper tutorial.
    Thanks.

    Parent the layers to a Null, spread them out in a circle. Rotate the Null. Set the auto-orient of the layers to always face the camera.

    convert text to movie clip or graphic, set motion tween from
    one place to another and
    on first frame of the tween, select the text and apply blur
    filter. Pretty much it :)

  • Is this done in Flash?

    I am a Crime Scene Detective and I am looking for new ways of
    presenting sketches and photos to juries and superiors. I saw a
    demo of a floor plan with numbers on it. When the person either
    moused over or clicked on a number it would disply info and a photo
    that the number was corresponding to. It was very impresssive. Can
    this be done in Falsh? If not what software can do this and what is
    the learning curve to do this? Thanks

    That sort of interactivity can be done in Flash; the learning
    curve is steep.
    It can also be done in basic (x)html, css and JavaScript;
    also a steepish learning curve.
    If you are not a designer or developer it may take you some
    time to work out the best way to build such an application, not to
    mention the software and testing that you would need to use and
    undertake. It may be better to ask a designer to build something
    for you. You could try your IT department for a lead or even ask on
    this forum for someones help in building such a thing. To a
    developer it would be fairly easy given your rough outline
    description of the functionality.

  • I want replace my desktop with a iPad to do emails and Microsoft office work. Can this be effectively done? What's the downside if any?

    I want replace my desktop with a iPad to do emails and Microsoft office work. Can this be effectively done? What's the downside if any?

    I'll go down your list one by one.
    1. Access mail - which I know that the iPad can do.
    Enough said.
    2. Save an excel or word or ppt of PDF attachment for review.
    You can view these types of documents natively on the iPad as Tgara has mentioned.
    3. Open an review and maybe change a excel or word file.
    There are many apps that allow this.  I personally prefer Apples iWork programs, Pages, Numbers, Keynote.  They tightly integrate with iCloud.
    4. Resave such above files.
    With Pages, Number, Keynote you can save/resave files in iCloud and locally.  Also you could use dropbox to save your files on dropbox and provide a way for you to share a folder with coworkers/family and they can add/view/review files from there and you can see the changes on your device.
    5. Reply to a mail attaching a file.
    This is possible in many ways.  From dropbox, or another app you can email files with the share button.
    6. Be able to rename files and store them in specific folders.
    This goes back to dropbox/iCloud.  iOS doesn't really have a traditional file system.  If you save a PDF it isn't saved anywhere you can just open it.  You would have to open an app that supports view PDFs and select the PDF you wish to view.  The same goes for documents, spreadsheets and etc.
    Hopefully this helps answer your questions.

  • Is this website all done in flash?

    Hi everyone,
    I just wanted to find out  whether this website is all done in Flash?
    http://www.ecomrecruitment.com/
    I really like the style and I think it's Flash but not sure.  How do they get the whole animation to fit the whole screen without a users horizontal scrollbar coming in? Is this something you can set in Dreamweaver when you upload it?
    Thanks!

    As far as I know it's not possible to set a percentage within Flash for the
    height or width of the Stage.
    It is possible however, to set the Publish Settings to a percentage or pixel
    value, so that the Stage will be rendered in the Browser at this size.
    It's common practice to use an alternative to Publish Settings, such as
    UFO.js or SWFObject.js, these allow you to set Flashvar parameters.
    Generally you make your Stage the maximum size you need, and set your width,
    height properties to 100% within your html wrapper with no-scaling and align
    it top-left.
    Then whatever the size of the user's browser it will render full size.
    All none visual assets are off stage, until an arrow is pressed.
    Depending on which is pressed, the off stage assets are tweened on stage
    whilst tweening the on stage assets off stage.

  • How is this amazing effect done,.

    Hi.
    I came across this cool effect, does somone know how the
    flying paper to the dancer was made?
    Both if possible, paper going across and the dancer..
    http://www.swfmagician.com
    thank you

    It comes with effort and patience! This effect is simple...
    tweening... give it a go and see what you can achieve through trial
    and error, you will get far more out of it than copying someones
    walkthrough.
