Here’s a cool flash tutorial I found courtesy of Etheosweb. The tutorial is about how you can rotate objects in 3D motion using Flash CS5.

The following are things you will need:

• Install Flash Player 10.0 so you can view Flash animation.
• Your Adobe Flash CS5 should be installed in the system to work with downloaded*.fla file.

Follow the steps below to understand the basic tools in Flash CS5:

• As you start Flash CS5, select ActionScript 3.0, under Create New area to load new file.
• Select SMALL SCREEN from interface type drop down which can be seen at the right of menubar area.
• Activate Rectangle Tool from Tools Panel. Create a rectangle in the stage area and make its height larger than its width.
• Select rectangle from stage area then select Window > Transfer from menubar.
• Double-click rectangle and select Modify > New Symbol from menubar.
• Name symbol as Box1_mc then hit OK button.
• Select Box1_mc movieclip then press and hold ALT key and make another copy and align them together.
• Select left box and in Transform box, set Y + -40 under 3D Rotation and for right box, set Y + 40. Align them.
