Planet Flash
The voice of the Flash community
A long, long time ago I used to skate. It was a time when Tony Hawk was still in his teens, boneless was the coolest trick and Future Primitive was the latest skateboarding movie, available exclusively on a VHS tape (remember those?).
I was never very successful at skateboarding. However, I always admired the smooth moves [...]
The guys from WHITEvoid have built a very intuitive visual 3D image browser for Viewzi.
Viewzi is a new way to experience search. Instead of one big list, you get nice visual Views tailored for the content you are looking for.
You just need to search for a word and click on 3D Photo Cloud View to [...]
SourceBinder is a node-based visual framework for easy prototyping and real-time tuning of Flash based visual applications.
If you are not sure what that means, just play the video and prepare to be amazed at how easy it is to create a Wiimote controlled 3D physics simulation.
SourceBinder is an Open Source project that integrates other open [...]
With the recent increase of 3D Engines Frameworks, some people comes across with difficulties to model objects, as it wasn’t usual to have this kind of tasks on the daily “to-do” list. Therefore, i bring you 12 3D tutorials to help us improving our skills on modeling 3D objects.

Plug-in Media, the Brighton-based crazed Flash wizards led by our own Seb Lee-Delisle, has recently finished an impressive 3D baseball visualization for Major League Baseball.
They used our Effects branch (now merged with Great White), including a custom perspective line for the pitches. Certainly an impressive piece of technology.
You can get more information about how the [...]
In Radiohead’s new video for House of Cards from the album In Rainbows, no cameras or lights were used. Just data.
This data is obtained from real time 3D recording, with structured light and laser-enhanced scanners and not only makes a wicked video but it’s also available for you to play with.
Google Code is hosting the [...]

Recently I wrote a tutorial for The Tech Labs, and it has been published yesterday. It is a tutorial which shows how to build a simple 3d photo album using the FIVe3D and TweenLite libraries. You can read it here. I hope you’ll will find it useful!
The Tech Labs is a website recently started by [...]
In this tutorial I will show you how to build a simple 3D photo album in AS3. We will build an application similar to this one.
I will use two AS3 libraries: FIVe3D and TweenLite, both open source. Five3D is a lightweight 3D library written by Mathieu Badimon. TweenLite is one of the many libraries available for script based animation in AS3. It was created by Jack Doyle from Greensock. It’s principal characteristic is that it’s small (hence it’s name) and simple to use. FIVe3D and TweenLite work very well together!

I used to work for a company that made of the concept of pixel perfection one of the pillars of their success. Today most of the top clients and agencies demand high quality, and pixel perfection became one of the important components of a great website. Obviously, it concerns 3D as well.
To achieve it, [...]
As we’ve already promised you, here’s the tutorial about how to create a 3d spectrum display from a sound file with papervision3d and flash.
On this tutorial, we’ll focus on the 3d part. If you’re not comfortable with the SoundMixer.computeSpectrum method then you should read the previous tutorial.

This started out as a demo for the depth-of-field sprite object, but quickly metamorphosed into something involving blendmodes, bitmap sessions, marbles…
With the tiled atoms in the background, strictly speaking the dof shouldn’t be apparent at all, but i do suffer from tweak obsession, so probably best to leave it. I may do another demo soon [...]
Today I found a new 3D engine: AS3 ROXIK Sharikura 3D Library. It is great from what I could see from their demos. Interesting is this demo where you can add more and more object to the animation but the animation is not jerky.
The library at this moment is not released but Masayuki Kido [...]
This time I have something less mind-twisting then the bend modifier and all that math. The idea was to create an animation of leaves flying around, propelled by wind controlled with the microphone. This little experiment was also a good occasion to work with some new Papervision3D features.
Effects. The Papervision3D team decided to merge the [...]
In a previous article I explained how to use FIVe3D with Flex and because fl.motion is not included into the Flex Framework we had to find out a workaround. I commented out the lines that referenced fl.motion but Kelvin Luck found another way: “copy the classes from Flash CS3 Actionscript framework into the project”. So [...]
For some time I’ve been planning to use FIVe3D of Mathieu Badimon, in Flex, not in Flash. I’ve been trying to make it work but no success ’till now.
After more than 4, 5 tries, I’ve managed to take the example from the FIVe3D framework and implemented it in Flex. It was not an easy task [...]
First of all, thanks for the great feedback I got after the first post on bending. I really appreciate it.
This time, I post an updated version of the Bend class for Papervision3D that works with every simple DisplayObject3D - that is, a DisplayObject3D that does not contain any child objects. Click here for a [...]
