  • Flash Export Plug-in?

    Posted by Matthew Ingram on July 6, 2006 at 4:54 pm

    I know AFX ships with a Flash Export feature, but it renders out the equivalent of a gigantic EPS sequence.

    Does anyone know if there is a more sophisticated Flash Exporter than gets closer to the Flash scene file (in the way for instance Toon Boom Studio exports a “proper” Flash scene?)

    Thanks

    Matthew,

    It really depends on the type of effects / filters you are using. In general, anything non vector based will render as full image frames and you basically would almost be better of with a flash movie.

    but never mind, thanks for taking the time to reply.

    Hmm … do you want:
    1) a relatively small SWF file or
    2) an FLA file?

    1) to make a small SWF file you need to make sure your comp only uses “supported features”, as outlined in the Help … but I think you knew that.
    2) AE can’t make FLA files, plugin or not.

    Does that cover it?
