video marketing with actors - create your own?

[ryanpal]

i've come across a few sites (ie/videoforprofit.com) that offer actors which walk on your site and say a script.

i'm wondering if there are any tutorials on this so that one could develope their own.

i believe i'm aware of the basics but would like a more technical document.

anyone come across this?

Kind of like this www dot americanentrepreneurlive dot com or this
www dot nrg-media dot com?

Instructions here (go to the post near the last)

Look up "alpha channel video" in Google and you will probably find a good tutorial. You will need Flash 8 or better to implement it.

Let me know if this helps

I think this is great, but I'd like a start/stop button. Not just having it start automatically.

@CoMp1eX:

Read this, it explains how to do it (basically you are setting "autoPlay=false" in the code that plays the flash animation).

Good Luck.
