burn transition effect

[pdechery]

Hi,

I would like to know how this (http://www.atb-music.com ) transition effect is done. When you get to the flash version of this (nice) site, notice the transition between the pictures. It´s not the average alpha transition; it looks more like a burned picture becoming normal, from total white to the normal aspect.

This effect is very used around the web, but I still don´t get how it´s done.

Anyone can help, pleeease ?

Thanks,

Pierre

nope... not just alpha... an advanced tween with various colours... check this for the basics....

Nousername,

I went to the link but didn´t get what that tutorial has to do with the effect that I had mentioned. If you can, please go back to the site I linked in my previous message and just notice the transition between the pictures. It has no mouse interaction or anything like that, it´s just two images interpolating, with an interesting effect, that looks like alpha but it´s not alpha!

Thank you for the posting!

Tink,

That´s exactly what I was looking for! It´s kind of a "burning out" effect. I knew from the beggining that somewhere here I would find something about it. Well, now I have! ;)

Thanks a lot!

Hi Tink,

I did a little investigation based on the links that you gave, and ended up downloading a couple of files, one of them being a .fla called "dynatint", offered by you, which had the color transition effect, done by some buttons that alternate the settings of that ra ba ga aa... properties; each button changing the tonality of the picture in a different way.

I don´t know if you remember that one, but I would like to ask you if that scripting on the file is the best, or simpler, to achieve that transition. I´m asking this because in your message you said that actually that file was too old or something like that. So I tought that maybe there would be other way to do it.

I already understand how the thing is done, but don´t know yet how to put it in script and submit it to a MouseOver event, like the example that you posted (Imageburn).

Thanks a lot for your attention!

there is another example further down the post, which is the exact example linked on my site

http://www.flash-forum.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?s=&postid=12482

it uses Laco's Tween prototype, which is by far the easiest way.

Tink,

It worked! Thank you! :)

I went to Laco and downloladed the extension. The method worked just right!

Much better than that for..in code on the other file. At last, it helped me to exercise my brain a little!

Thanks a lot for your help!
