Sine Wave Generator

January 15, 2012

I’m working on making a synth app in Flash, sorta like a Moog. This is my Hello World application of the AS3 SampleData class.

It uses the X and Y to compute the left and right frequencies.

Warning: May blow your speakers….! :) not really, but it has some ear piercing sounds which might annoy your neighbour’s dog slightly, and If you get the sound down really low and turn your speakers up you could probably soil your pants! Makes some mean Martian flying saucer sounds.

AS2 Colour Transformer

October 25, 2011

Here is a script I created for transforming the colour of a MovieClip. Written in Actionscript 2, this script includes a cool little frame rate counter I made because As2 doesn’t support ‘stage.frameRate’ property like As3 does!

Flash Text – Slow and Frustrating!!

October 25, 2011

I was having difficulty with Flash text trying to do that Fast and the Furious type effect. When it would do the stop and drift bit, it would go all staggered and stoppy. The art director would never let it fly! So I found a fix. Flash is notoriously bad to deal with text at the best of times. It was the blur effect after all. I moved the text clip into a child clip and blurred the parent. In this version I have added skew and some cheesy sound effects.

Some tests I’ve done recently mapping a MovieClip onto a sphere using the BitmapTransformer Class from http://www.flashandmath.com.

Click on the image above to see the swf demo. Then anywhere on the sphere and drag to rotate the globe.
