Take your Flash to your TV

Chris GeorgenesWe usually concerned with Flash as a means of creating interactive, multimedia pieces for use on a personal computer, but Chris Georgenes reminds us that Flash can be used for a lot more. Check out his article, "Migrating Flash Projects to Video" on the Flash Dev Center site. He has some great tips on taking your Flash movies to DVD and broadcast TV. I especially like the nod to Flashants' SWF2Video. A couple of years ago, I had to reanimate pieces in AfterEffects for DVD menu backgrounds that I'd mocked up using coded animation in Flash because I couldn't figure out how to output the dynamic Flash movie to video. More recently, I've seen GeoVid's Flash to Video Encoder at work and been pleased with it, but I'm definitely going to check out SWF2Video now too!
