Hi people,

For the coming meeting, Ed will talk about flash optimisation and Danny will discuss full screen/browser flash with us.

Loading a huge flash file is not much a problem for us who stay in Singapore. However, if you are preparing materials for countries which are less fortunate with bandwidth, optimisation is a must. Besides that, optimisation skills are very handy for producing banners. After all, won’t you feel proud that your files are well optimised?

What is the difference between full screen flash and full browser flash? How to program and how to prepare graphics for full screen/browser flash? What kind of design is good to build full screen/browser? Come and join the discussion with Danny.

Time: 11AM-1PM 24th July
Venue: The Ogilvy Centre, 35 Robinson Road #03-01
Topics: Flash Optimisation, Full Screen/Browser Flash

Hi guys,

There are lots of APAC projects done in Singapore and translating a project across multiple languages is always a pain in the AS. So for April’s meeting, Ed will be talking about how to control multi-language text with AS3 built in Locale class.

After that, we’ll take a look at HYPE framework (http://www.hypeframework.org) developed by super star Joshua Davis. HYPE is created for designers. It brings back the exciting AS2 golden era when designers got creative with scripts to achieve visual effects.

Time: 11AM-1PM 24th April
Venue: The Ogilvy Centre, 35 Robinson Road #03-01
Topics: Flash Locale, HYPE Framework

The next meeting for A-SFUG is coming up on Saturday June 27th, 11am at the Ogilvy Centre.

Truly excited about Ari’s (http://pericraft.com) idea, we are going to have a special meeting this month. The focus of the meeting is “How Stuff Works”.

Basically it’s about bringing up your questions and discuss them together. Things like, how to do Augmented Reality (we’ve already covered that), how to do Yugop’s running text or, most frequently, how did they do this (or that you discovered during random browsing)?

If you see something interesting but can’t figure out how it works, share with us and hopefully, we can nail the solution.

Please post your questions on the Facebook event page and we’ll cover them during the meeting. If you are shy, you can also ask during the actual meeting.

Venue: 35 Robinson Road, #03-01 the Ogilvy Centre
Date: Saturday June 27th
Time: 11am

Please come along and share your thoughts, ideas, and questions.

Please RSVP via Facebook

Hope to see you all there,
Ed
