Re: FLASH: OT(?) Concepting (was Surreal Flash)

[J. Fehrenbach]

Okay, then lets keep this thread on the list.  I just didn't want anybody to

think I'm an idiot for asking for help.  I usually don't even ask for help

within my own organization because everybody charges huge $$ for

consultation work and would laugh at my request for a favor.

Anyway, it is for a friend who writes dance music professionally.  He hooks

me up with tons of CDs each month, so I naturally felt obligated to design

his new website, rather than let him go to a designer who'd charge him the

big bucks.

So far he hasn't been able to really explain his idea very well other than

the quote I previously posted.  I am imagining something along the lines of

"The Cell" meets "The Matrix"...(Dali vs. dark sci fi for those of you who

aren't movie buffs).  I was thinking maybe using melting windows, strange

symbols, maybe an animated tunnel affect.....but I really don't know.

Usually at this point in my planning I have at least 4 pages of note book

paper filled with sketches and ideas, but currently have a blank notebook!!

Anyway, any help would be great.  Does anybody have any Flash techniques

that would qualify as trippy or surreal?

Thanks,

Joe
