Beautiful

Sometimes I come across something that I want to share:

Nuit Blanche from Spy Films on Vimeo.

There’s a making of video too.

Flash Week two code

// Anything to the right of these two slashes is
// A comment and will not be part of the code.

var xSize:int = 200;

// Add an event listener to the stage and name the function
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,onFrameLoop);

// Your function name must match the name after the comma
// in the parenthesis.
function onFrameLoop(evt:Event):void {

// These are all of the things that will happen in
// the function.

// This will rotate the instance of the rectangle
// colin according to mouse X and Y values.
colin.y = mouseY;
colin.x = 800 - mouseX;

// here’s an if statement
if (mouseX > xSize) {
trace(”rotating! ” + mouseX +” ” + colin.y);
//colin.rotation = mouseX;
colin.height = 29;
// here’s another option if that statement hasn’t been met
}
else if(mouseX < xSize) {
trace(”scaling!”);
colin.scaleY = mouseY;
}
// This will scale the instance of the rectangle
// colin according to the mouse X and Y values.
colin.scaleX = mouseY/20;
colin.scaleY = mouseX/20;

}

// Don’t forget to close the function with the
// brace (squiggly bracket) above!!!
