Creating the DNA effect like in the FlashBox banner.
Create an object like the one shown below.Give it an instance name of dna1
You can use any colours but the colours I used are as follows:
A radial gradient set with colours from left to right:
255.255.255 at alpha 100%
255,255,200 at alpha 50%
255,255,255 at alpha 100%
243,126,12 at alpha 40%
255,255,255 at alpha 0%
Now create a layer and name it actions. In the first keyframe give action:
for (i=2; i<30; i=i+1)
{
duplicateMovieClip ("/dna1", "dna" add (i), i);
setProperty ("/dna" add i, _rotation, getProperty("/dna" add (i-1), _rotation)+11);
setProperty ("/dna" add i, _x, getProperty("/dna" add (i-1), _x)+10);
}
setProperty ("/dna1", _visible, "0");
In the next keyframe give action
for(i=2; i < 30; i = i+1)
{ setProperty ("/dna" add i, _rotation, getProperty("/dna" add i, _rotation) + 5);
}
And finally give the third keyframe
gotoAndPlay (2);
And that’s it.
Note this is not what I have in my own sig it is a much more simplistic version of it.
