Greetings to you all,

I am currently developing a simple laser show animation in Flash - something like shown on pictures [here](http://images.google.sk/images?q=laser+show&hl=eng). I soon found out that animating light in flash can be a real pain in the AS[2.0], happilly, all i have to do is animation, no programming.

Anyway, i still would welcome any constructive ideas, how to shape vector graphic to animate 3d movement and such… perhaps some tuts on manipulating ligt in flash blending colors…

- i would like to add “steam” later, laser beams penetrating steam, getting blurred in it, colored perhaps… as show [here.](http://www.hw-v.com/catalog/productpics/Ecoline/EL-8030RG/100_1858m.jpg)

This should be flash5/flash6 compatible… I know flash8 would be helpful here, but i simply cant use it.

Thanks for advice 🙂 !
