Hi everyone,

I wondered if someone could tell me how a swinging ball on a string effect was put together on the following flash site:

[http://www.geigerproductions.com/default\_flash.html](http://www.geigerproductions.com/default_flash.html)

I assume each of the balls/string would be a different movie clip but how did they get the “string” to bend like that and swing in tandem with the ball?

Any tips appreciated.
