There are bunch of small things that I’ve wanted to blog about so I will just do them all in this post. They are listed below in no specific order.
FITC Amsterdam Workshop Files
Thibault Imbert and I delivered a full-day workshop in Amsterdam on using the ByteArray class. I have already posted the slides from this workshop but I procrastinated a little on uploading the finished ActionScript files. I have finally gotten my act together so you can now download the workshop files. Thanks everyone for coming!
Two Flash Camps in Asia
In two weeks time I will be departing for Tokyo for the first of two Flash Camps in Asia. The second will be in Seoul, Korea. If you are just hearing about this now I regret to inform you that both events sold out within hours. Now I wish I could say that they sold out so quickly because I was speaking, but it is more likely because of the other top-tier Flashers who are presenting. The official speaker lineup is myself, Mike Chambers, Ralph Hauwert, Mario Klingemann, and Erik Natzke. I’m really looking forward to hanging with these creative mofos for a couple of weeks.
I Won’t Be Recording a New Flasher Magazine Soon
I’m trying a little reverse psychology on myself here. I have promised a new issue for a long time and have not delivered. People often come up to me at conferences and ask me when I’m going to do a new tutorial. But people are downright angry with me for not doing another Flasher. I have just purchased a new Canon EOS 7D just for this purpose so hopefully I will get my act together.
Flash Player Gets a New Product Manager
A couple of weeks ago, Justin Everett-Church left Adobe to start his own company, leaving a gap in the Flash Player product management team. I’m very excited to announce that my good buddy Thibault Imbert has accepted this position. Thibault is an ActionScript master and will make an awesome addition to the player team. He will be relocating to San Francisco sometime soon so things are going to get very French around here.
Latin Flash Tour 2010
Yes I know it is early to be discussing this but I just wanted to let all my friends down south know that we are already planning things. We will be adding a stop in Brazil, most likely in Rio de Janeiro. There are rumors of big name special guests that may be attending as well. Look for more details soon on cities and dates.

Sounds good Lee, I’m looking forward to the new Flasher Magazine
Don’t forget, the new FWA site is launching today! Made by Group 94!

Congratulations to Thibault! I have learned a lot from him over the years!
I didn’t intend sounding angry when asking you about flasher magazine at the fitc amsterdam party
looking forward to the next issue!
an amsterdam dead drop would have been awesome, maybe next time?
Hi Lee,
Can you also post the examples from the ‘Touch Me Baby’ session.
Would be really nice.
Thanks,
Sidney de Koning
I love the blog, your twitter posts, and the tutorials, but Flasher is my favorite of your projects! You should get a crew to help you with it. Can’t wait for the next issue.
