Small Freelance job available

[Dave in Cairns]

I'm looking for someone who can take our existing graphic logo and using flash , animate it to look like it's being handwritten .

The file will be used as a header title on our website australianwoodart.com

The graphic size will need to be 400-450 pixels wide and small file size to keep loading time down .

The logo was originally created by a calligrapher and in keeping with our own hand made pieces , we'd like the logo to appear handwritten across the header with a time frame of 6-10 seconds.

Can this be done ? If you can do this and supply the files in the correct format , we'll be happy to pay .

You can see the logo on any of the pop up windows accessable from the gallery images at http://www.australianwoodart.com

Please contact us via email .

TIA

Dave

What do you mean by making it look handwritten? Like making it look like a pencil is going back and forth writing it out?

[Dave in Cairns]

We don't need the hand and brush animation , just the letters appearing as if they are being painted across the header .

Have you seen the logo ?

Hmm , maybe too hard eh ? I was hoping there maybe some pros drop in here from time to time .

This image should be a little clearer .

This is the effect we'd like but it needs to be in .swf format .

Too hard ?, Can't be done ? Let us know please .

Thanks for the link jaclaz . That site deals with fonts , but if you read my post , you'll see I need someone to do the number on a graphic image . .

Font handwriting is kids stuff , but finding someone who can do this with graphics if tricky .

I'll try somewhere else , doesn't seem to be anyone here that knows about graphics and designing .

Cheers,

Dave

This is a little late I guess as I just starting browsing these forums recently. I can give your logo the effect you are looking for. Let me know if you are still interested.

Go to their web site...you'll see they already have it done.

Looks pretty nice, too.

is this effect done frame by frame?

i suppose there is an easy way to achieve this in flash...
