Hi all!

I know this is not at critique question but I didn't find anywhere else to ask this.

I want some graphics to be painted and written in an animation. I want the result a bit like this http://www.creativecow.net/articles/kantorski_kevin/signature/signature.mov

Hope anyone can help me :rolleyes:

Someone just posted how to do this in AE over in the WIP board of CG talk. I think this guy wanted to mimic the Harry Potter glowing writing.

If you have After Effects, you could do this and export to Shockwave.

to do it just in flash is a fairly painful process, best way is probably to create your final text at the end frame and work backwards, deleting or masking a little bit at a time.

Try this on for size! Its probably a little bit larger than what you want but it will give ya the basic concept and an example of one method.
