the bg transition effect

[mothafunk]

hi ppl

just wondering how to do the the background transition effect between photos of different sizes in the http://www.jamesgood.net site. the whole site moves in accordance.

i have seen this effect in few different photographers sites but i'm not sure what it is called, hence i am not sure what to search for in the tutorials.

my actionscripting knowledge is mediocre. i am using MX.

thanks

The two primary effects are "dynamic masking" and "easing" or "inertia".

An easing/inertia example can be found here (http://www.actionscript.org/showMovie.php?id=466).

These search results (http://www.actionscript.org/forums/search.php3?s=&action=showresults&searchid=738696&sortby=lastpost&sortorder=descending) will get you started with the dynamic masking concept.

Hope it helps,
