You can’t generate it with Flash. It’s done with Photoshop or something like that. It’s just 2 different picture and a mask 🙂

This is an easy one and can be done in most versions of Flash.

You need 2 of the same image. One blurred and one not.  
Put the blurred on top and make it a mask.  
Make the mask disappear however you want to reveal the image below.
