Well, I've been animating a little bit on that Britney thing, but mostly I've been practicing in Flash seperately.
I've always had a tough time animating fire and fog, but a cool dude by the name of adwau gave me a hint about using photoshop for better fog. I looked up a fog-making tutorial online and found a good one that helped me find a starting point. From there I found a better way that I made form that one using more 10% opacity and layering it sporadically. Looks WAY awesome especially when animated!
Then I found a fire tutorial that uses text to teach fire, but i use white circles instead of text. Now it looks great as well when animated. It'll look even better once I take some serious time to make the fire instead of just practice.
I am happy. Back to animating again for me.
