Now updated with information on ActionScript 3.0, this guide teaches animators how to use Flash ActionScript to move the objects in their movie, rather than letting Flash's tween engine do it for them. The benefit of this is smaller, more realistic, more dynamic, interactive movies that literally seem to come alive on the screen.

Reader reviews for Foundation Actionscript 3.0 Animation: Making Things Move!

From the publisher

This is the first definitive and authoritative book available on ActionScript 3 animation techniques. ActionScript animation (rather than tweened animation created within the Flash IDE) is a very popular discipline for Flash developers to learn. It allows for the creation of smaller, more realistic, more dynamic, animated Flash movies, with realistic physics, such as gravity and collisions. This essential skill set has been learned by many Flash developers through Keith Peter's best-selling ActionScript animation book -- Foundation ActionScript Animation: Making things move. It has now been updated to ActionScript 3, Adobe's new and improved scripting language. All of the code has been updated, and some new techniques have been added to take advantage of ActionScript 3's new features, including the display list and new event architecture. The code can be used with the Flash 9 IDE, Flex Builder 2, or the free Flex 2 SDK.

About the author

Keith Peters lives in the vicinity of Boston with his wife, Kazumi, and their daughter, Kristine. He has been working with Flash since 1999, and has co-authored many books for friends of ED, including Flash MX Studio, Flash MX Most Wanted, and the ground-breaking Flash Math Creativity. In 2001, he started the experimental Flash site, BIT-101 (BIT-101.com), which strives for a new, cutting edge, open-source experiment each day. The site won an award at the Flashforward 2003 Flash Film Festival in the Experimental category. In addition to the experiments on the site, there are several highly regarded Flash tutorials which have been translated into many languages and are now posted on web sites throughout the world. Keith is currently working full time doing freelance and contract Flash development and various writing projects.
