Oh My! Do you see that awesome color effect? Watch closely and check out how just the car gets colorized with that killer blend. The trick here involves combining 2 methods of masking: Layer Mask and ActionScript Bitmap Masking. Don’t fret, I’ll show you how!
Yeah, I told you this would be awesome. In short we are using a movieclip containing an alpha gradient to reveal and image (the colored car) which itself is masked. Watch this video twice if you have to. Its all in there.
ActionScript 3 Code Used in this Video
//enable bitmap caching for both movieclips color_mc.cacheAsBitmap = true; mask_mc.cacheAsBitmap = true; //tell the colored car to use the gradient clip, mask_mc, as its mask! color_mc.mask = mask_mc;
