Making an Interactive Logo in Flex
Posted Under: Actionscript, Animation, Flex, Programming, VU
Our first assignment for the Multimedia Authoring course was to make an interactive logo which navigates back to the home page when clicked. Nothing special, just an exercise to get familiar with Flex and AS3.
Since it had to be a portfolio page in the end, I wanted to use my name and initials. And while doing this I wanted a mascot for my logo, which happened to be an owl by using 2 different fonts. About the effects I used, I move the eyes of the owl according to the mouse position. And add blur effect when the logo is clicked.
You can download the source code for my logo component or check out the demo flex application.
Oh, and the documentation of my code is already embedded as comments in my files. Let me know if you have problems running the application or have any questions related..
