Vectorized Video with Illustrator CS2

Here’s a sneak peak at the newest tutorial I’m working on for gotoAndLearn(). It shows how to turn normal video files into 100% vector shapes for use in Flash 8. This is accomplished using nothing more than Adobe Illustrator CS2. You can also do this type of video with Flix Pro, but by using Illustrator, you can actually do a much better job. This technique can produce a whole range of special effects and can create extremely small filesizes if optimized correctly. See the example below which is just a video file of me talking. The y of the mouse controls the scale so you can see that it’s all vector!
