翻頁效果
Flash page turning effect tutorial 用動畫製作翻頁
我在美國學電腦所以對中文術語不太熟悉 可以參考下面連結
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0_tw/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00000219.html
Tagged with: Flash page turning effect tutorial
Step 1: The file 開新檔案 設立舞台大小
Start yourself a new .fla file - I used a 450 pixel x 275 pixel work area. The key here is to make sure you leave enough room at the top for the pages to “turn” - otherwise, you’re going to run into cut-off page tops.
Step 2: The Layers
四層: 書本 內容 翻頁 行為編碼
Make 4 layers. From bottom to top, name them: “Book”, “Content”, “Pageturn”, and “Actions”. Keeping your layers seperate is a good idea. This is a mere matter of personal preference. All layers only have one keyframe - blank initially. The Actions layer only has a ‘Stop’ action on it.
Step 3: The book
書本層級 mc 用一個長方形 或用書本形狀的.美工圖案插畫皆可
Make a Movie Clip, and call it “Book”. Edit Book and then start with a rectangle using rounded corners or square corners if you like the looks of square corners better - if you have a photograph you’re going to use for your book, that is also acceptable.
Step 4: The pages
用另一個長方形做翻頁
The flat pages are made by making another rectangle 182 pixels by 195 pixels. It can be a white box with a black border for now when you first make it, or adjust the following settings before you make the box. Select the border if you’ve already made the box, or make a Black 1 point border, and click on the “Custom” button to adjust your settings as follows: 定做
Type: Ragged
Pattern: Simple
Wave Height: Very Wavy
Wave Length: Very Short
這可讓書本頁看起來比較真實
This gives the pages a more realistic “ragged” look.
漸層色
第一 從左到右 白色到黑色
The colour on the pages is a gradient with three points. First, make a (from left to right) white to black gradient. Leave the white (255,255,255) as is, and change your black colour box to a grey (175,175,175).
左邊白色的範圍約四分之三
Now, move your left-hand side ‘White’ box to about 3/4 of the way to your right. Insert another point between the two a little more than halfway, so it’s almost touching the ‘black’ colour box. Make this value a lighter grey (207,207,207). This should now resemble one half of the books’ pages. I used this square to make the other half also, simply by using Copy, Paste, then Modify -> Transform -> Flip Horizontal. The right edge border of the first set of pages you made, and the left edge border of the second set should be overlapping - this makes the crease in the middle of the book. Return to the root scene, and place this near the bottom of your stage on the “Book” layer.
Step 5: The Content
I’m not going to tell you what to put on your books’ pages, just make sure whatever you decide to make your book about, it has ample room, and is not squished - it will dimish the overall looks of this book. I used a static red gradient ball on the right-hand side.
Step 6: The Pages Turned
翻頁
再做一個影片有兩層Make another Movie Clip, and call it “PageTurn”. Make two layers in this clip, 23 frames long. The first frame on each layer is blank, as this is where the pages are at rest. You do not necessarily have to name these two layers, as one is stationary for the entire duration, and the other is the layer that does all the work. I will refer to them as “Layer 1″ and “Layer 2″.
Layer 1 is the layer with the book’s pages laid flat - if you’re going to make the content of your book visible on the right-hand side while the pages turn, only put the left-hand side page on this layer; otherwise, put both the left and the right-hand side. Depending on the type of book you are aiming to depict, it may or may not have content on it. The first frame on Layer 2 is also blank. Starting on frame 2, put the full page at rest you copied from the Book clip earlier in this step. Frames 3 through 22 are all variations of this page, using the Free Transform Tool (Hotkey Q) - herein called “FTT”
On frame three, I used the FTT to modify the page, and moved it just about 10 pixels to the left, giving the illusion of the page being lifted. Each frame after this is moved to the left by approximately 10 pixels, and up five pixels. This distance is also up to your discretion, but if you move them too far too fast, your animation is going to look choppy - the more frames you use, the smoother, but requires more patience. On frame 12, the pages are near vertical, but I left them as about four or five pixels in thickness. After frame 12, I use the frames flipped horizontally in reverse order from 11 back to frame one (inclusive).
Step 7: For every page, turn, turn, turn …
Now we have to make something to actually make the pages turn. I have made a button that resembles the corner of a page turned up, just to keep with the book theme. This object can be an arrow, or whatever you’d like it to be. Just make sure whatever the object is, you have a on(release) telling the PageTurn to play.

Audacity and Potcast
個人的隨身廣播節目- Podcast
Podcast的應用(轉貼)
(一)個人用途，Podcasting的使用者，不僅只是扮演聽眾的角色，更是自己podcasting的主人，不論是扮演流行音樂DJ、短劇男女主角或是分享個人生活的影音日誌，可以說是全方位的個人行銷通路，藉由網路提供他人下載至桌上電腦、手提電腦、PDA或是iPod之類的可攜式數位隨身聽播放。
(二)教學用途，柏克萊大學(University of California at Berkeley)從十年前就開始提供Webcast的服務，將教授上課的實況錄下來，Podcast課程則是從2004年10開始試辦，學生可從iTune網頁或學校網頁下載，台灣近期隨著教育部卓越計劃的推行，部份學校的網路學習資源也走向了podcast的應用，以輔仁大學為例，便成立了我的英語角(My English corner)網站，提供了以學校歷史為背景的廣播劇、名人訪問等英文的podcast資料(輔仁大學英語角網站，2006)
(三)商業用途，其中最主要的就是在傳統廣播(traditional radio)在歷經數位廣播 (DAB，Digital Audio Broadcasting) 與網路廣播 (Internet Boardcast)後，將同時進入podcasting時期，不僅提供原有廣播服務，更可將精采節目剪輯成podcast供網友下載 ，未來也可朝向收費制度，
(四)公眾性宣傳:也可說是政治宣傳，如美國州長阿諾史瓦辛格把會議記錄公開，讓民眾能對政策與政府運作能有管道去了解。近期，美國白宮也開始提供了布希的演講內容於白宮的網站供民眾下載。(end)
我與potcast的相遇
今年秋天我上了多媒體課 七年前上過一次 現在使用的軟體都改了
我卻無法再正式選修這門課
因為學校說只能修一次 真是奇怪
幸好我仍然去聽課
老師就讓我免費繼續上
同學中人數也一直下滑 現在只有十三人
我因為暑假時修了華語師資班
就學過一些聲音編輯和powerpoint
現在更深入了 我原想post audacity totorial 在華文網上
但是連線有問題 幸好還有這個網
這是叫做backup有備無患
我才因而找到各種說明
A potbast is a collection of files available on a Web server. The files in a podcast are usually audio and video, but they also can be Web pages, text, PDF, images or any file type. Each file is referred to as an episode of the podcast. The internet addresses of the fiels are listed in a text file, known as the feed. (from my textbook)
