Hello Kirupers!!!  
I want to make a blink effect to a movie clip.  
It is like to have the movie and then blinks 3 or 4 times changing to gray, blank and disappears. Something like that.  
Please see [http://www.01-LA.com](http://www.01-LA.com). In the intro you can see a headphone or a chair doing the effect. In fact, they used it a lot in all intro.  
Do you have a tutorial or the solution?  
Thank a lot.

Thanks a lot.  
I thought I will be more difficult, because in [01-LA.com](http://01-LA.com) seems more sophisticated.:bounce:
