I'll only join this if the dimensions get reduced to 550x400
Vcam makes the world go round.
Plus you can also use vcam on pivot animations (Obviously not included in the program).


I can use the vcam, but for everyone else it would involve making their animation big and making a box in pivot which I would then have to delete and it would get incredibly difficult. Unless people wanted to let me use my discretion as to where the vcam should go.

Is it really that difficult in flash to animate big? (genuine question. I have no idea)

The bigger you animate something, the choppier is will appear due to the larger movements.

for flash collabs to sort v-cam out all you do is make the v-cam exactly as big as the canvas, place it exactly on the white bit and put that on frame 1 of every entry and then a blank keyframe

standardised backgrounds would also be a good idea for this

and i'd like to be in

I do best when the canvas size is 400x250 because I zoom in twice to draw.
Think about it this way, the stick man is the subject of the animation, so the Vcam should follow him. I don't see how it would be hard to use a normal Vcam over a pivot animation. I would put it together if it's that much of a problem.

Also, if you guys want me to, I can make a background for this.

I'm zooming once when I animate.

and, I can make the background too. I have completed my background and intro.

Also, can I make it a game ? maybe, we can chose his way to take the apple from the tree ?

Ok, I think I have a solution which will work. The end product of the collab will be in 525x315. The background will be made in size 1050x630. Everyone has the choice of whether they want the action vcammed in on, or if they just want their anim resized (which I think means just bringing the vcam out to fit the whole background in, but I'm not certain). How's that?

@MaxZ: Oh, sorry. Added + everyone else.

As for the background, I think it looks like we're standardising it. Since there's more than one person willing to do it, I think the fairest way is for you all (as in everyone who wants to) to make a background and we'll choose the best one.

Retarded. 550x400. Otherwise no one will want to join for flash.
Pivoters can make whatever dimensions they want to, because if the person is good with flash, they will probably have already used Vcam

The idea basically means that flash animators are using 550x400, since that's where it'll finish once the vcam's been applied to the pivots. The background needs to be made big in the first place though, that's more what I'm getting at.

Background: 1100x800
Final product: 550x400

Do you see what I'm trying to say?

Or , 550x400 for flashers
And for pivoters 1100x800 and they make it smaller in gif. format.
