A weird floating head

This is an old swf I dug up recently when I should of been learning AS3. I like the way it turned out. The pseudo-3d effect is achieved by using a variation on the old drag the nose by the cursor effect. Here is a bigger version.

Oh yeah, the floating head belongs to Gene Liebel, my old work mate at Huge.

    Good work. That’s kind of creepy.

    I’d sure like to see a tutorial on the “drag the nose by the cursor effect”. I could certainly use it on a new project of mine.

    I linked the bigger version to my blog, if you don’t mind…. I have a bit of a list of weird shit going… nothing much… but this fits nicely.

    That is a very cool flash trick. I would love to see a tutorial on how to create a floating head like yours. great work.

  4. I’ve had recurring nightmares of the floating head ever since I saw the bigger version of it a couple days ago. I thought I just let you know that you ruined my once peaceful nights of sleep. Now, that I got that “floating head” off my chest. Great work! 🙂

    yep – is great. i saw it and it is really similar to something I want to do – but wanna work with lots of crazy childrens faces and manipulate them like this – i realise you haven’t made a tutorial yet – but if you make one would love to see it!
