Are you reffering to the flash animation?  
The rectangle that shoots up then fades out to show the dispaly

If so that just a series of motion tweens and then some alpha fading

seems a a spherize effect (applyed negative way)… (Adobe photoshop has it… AE should also have this i guess), a little bit a zoom and then a little twist in the end… or something close, with a fade to transparency or background color.

Hey Swoop,

How did you export it? Did you use the swf option then rasterize it? That is what I am doing and it is coming out pretty big?? Thanks :thumb:

Im still curious on how you were able to get the file size low enough to us in flash mx? I work with AE often and I seem to max out my files with high load times. Did you use a file compressor?

For video compression i highly recommend you get sorenson squeeze and then export as a flv with quicktime or straight from sorenson it decreases file sizes dramatically. And you can also try using optimaze (although i have never used this since my flv files were at a decent size for what i needed them)

I agree… the sqeeze program… man it relealy sqweezes 😛 i ones prest a movie of about 2mb in to a flv of about 190- kb 😛 and it still looked good to…

trick is though if u tent to use it in flash tip is make it an FLV coz if yuh make it swf… flash cuts you movie upon import in to frames (bitmaps) and that makes you flash SWF real huge ☹
