Silhouettes

1

Hi,

More and more websites have those moving “silhouettes” of people… how do you make something like that, step by step? Any ideas?

Examples:

  1. http://www.sinplex.com/box.html (after touching the drips)

  2. http://www.livetoskateboard.com/NoFlash/downloads.html (guy on his skateboard)

There are websites that even have their whole menu system with a silhouette like that. Anyway, I hope you know what I mean :slight_smile:

Thanks!

I saw this about six months ago. It’s a 5 tut, but should show you the path:

Yeah, if you don’t use an outside program like Flix or something it just takes excellent vector art and animation skills.

As a matter of fact I have Flix but I wouldn’t have the slightest idea of where to start to do that… Could you explain a bit more?

Freddythunder & lostinbeta: Thanks for the tips, I’ll check that out. I want to do something with my dog’s silhouette.
If you could give me a bit more information of how to do the trick in Flix I’ll be very, very happy. :wink:

Jubba: Yup, you have nice colours on that site. :slight_smile:

EDIT : Dzoink! Weird, I just clicked that Flashkit link and it actually is with a dog! :crazy:

I don’t use Flix so I don’t have a single clue how it works, but Kirupa has some stuff on it…
