2 questions about 2advanced

I’ve 2 questions about 2advanced.com.

  1. What’s the blue anim in the audio preferences panel ?

  2. How did the developer move water under the machines?

Can anyone explain in a very simple manner how i can get those effects.
Thankyou.

Well for your first question is actually really simple…
you just make alot of pictures in photoshop with a little change in each one… so then change the fps and you wont notice thats a set a various pictures…

  1. its a 3d programm but i really don’t know nothing about it

Thankyou. Can u tell me how i can make pics. in photoshop ? Can u elaborate your answer no. 1?

better titles please.

lol where can you start, you can do anything with photoshop. there are some tutorials on kirupa at http://www.kirupa.com/photoshop/index.htm try some of those and enjoy :slight_smile:

No. 1 was probably done with a plugin in after effects and then later turned into an animation frame by frame in flash. But if your good enough with animation you could definately do that effect with frame by frame using photoshop.

The water effect was done using a 3D program like SoftImage, lightwave, maya, or 3D studio MAX. They probably took the frames from the final render of the 3d water animtion and did a FbF in flash. These 3D programs are also responsible for the trendy polygon explosion wallpapers that have been popping up everywhere since the early zero’s.

Simple!
Open an Image in Photoshop
Use a Radial Blur of 10%-----> Save your Image as 1.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 20%-----> Save your Image as 2.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 30%-----> Save your Image as 3.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 40%-----> Save your Image as 4.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 50%-----> Save your Image as 5.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 60%-----> Save your Image as 6.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 70%-----> Save your Image as 7.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 80%-----> Save your Image as 8.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 90%-----> Save your Image as 9.jpg
Use a Radial Blur of 100%-----> Save your Image as 10.jpg

Now Open up Flash and Import all the *.jpegs and insert 10 Keyframes and place each individual image from 1 to 10 frames

Simple wasnt it!
try out each plugin in Photoshop with different settings, but becareful of the file size in Flash!

Thankyou all . Bj do i’ve to blur different images or just one for 10 times? Thankyou.

I opened 8 images in PS ,radial blurred them ,imported them in flash n checked them with diff. fps. Please check out the outcome. I don’t think it’s like the one on 2a. :puzzled:

try same one 10 times!!!

start at the begining, you are obviously just starting out, don’t try to be 2advanced (well named)

How dare u say i’m just startin out when i’ve used flash for years, the only problem is that i’ve NO TALENT !!!. Ok i’m gonna try one image for 10 times.:cool:

I did it in PSn IR but when i tried to upload it,got mssg. big file ,can’t b uploaded. I did it in flash later on,pls. check.

and the problem is…?

looks fine from here, is that the effect you were after/

rb3.

Like i mentioned earlier the problem is i’ve no talent:to: .
I don’t think the files i’ve uploaded look like 2a’s anim. in the audio preferences panel :puzzle:

what exactly are we meant to be looking at?!?!

2a’s animation in the audio preferences panel. 2a= 2advanced.com

well, rather than posting tiny updates, why not work at it for a bit, then post when you have something more to look at.

or are you trying to get your post count up?!?! :stuck_out_tongue:

LOL, this is it, i’ve done what u n BJ told me. If u’ve more suggestions pls. tell me. have u seen anim on 2a,which i’m talkin bout?

@Peace

The small tips were just small ideas, U can try different effects using different plugins and filters by just changing each setting even u can use the lightening effect or u can use the swirl, spherize, water ripples,.etc.

To be more adavanced, i guess 2A used After Effects and exporeted as a small swf!
To get that effect smooth…They have experimented on different compression methods and got the final output.

Cheers,
