Proper way to submit script samples?
Hello everyone, I am looking for some advice.
I am feeling pretty comfortable about actionscript 2.0, and I am trying for my first real job in flash actionscript development.
I was told by the lady at the hiring agency that her clients would like to see a sample of my "source," which I assumed to mean a few snippets of actionscript (not my actual .fla files.) I asked her to clarify, but she did not know exactly what they wanted, and told me to "use my judgment."
Well, here's the thing, my most recent (and most overall impressive) project involves 2 separate .swfs embedded in a third, and the script behind it is located in several different places in the movies. Of course, as I have been told is just good practice, I have done everything possible to keep all the actionscript in one place, but because of the complex nature of the project, I was forced to make some exceptions.
How do you think I should present my work? Should I arrange my scripts with a short description of how they are connected, or should I submit my whole .FLA, with notes?
This is the final product, just to give you an idea...

You can see the boxes on either side of the thing, those are not visible when the movie is embedded in my page (as they are outside its borders) but they should give you an indication of how my movie is working.

applying for first flash job, looking for some advice...
Hello everyone, I am looking for some advice.
I am feeling pretty comfortable about AS2.0, and I am trying for my first real job as a flash/AS developer.
I was told by the lady at the hiring agency that her clients would like to see a sample of my "source," which I assumed to mean a few snippets of script (not my actual .fla files.) I asked her to clarify, but she did not know exactly what they wanted, and told me to "use my judgment."
Well, here's the thing, my most recent (and most overall impressive) project involves 2 separate .swfs embedded in a third, and the script behind it is located in several different places in the movies. Of course, (as I have been told is just good practice) I have done everything possible to keep all the actionscript in one place, but because of the complex nature of the project, I was forced to make some exceptions.
How do you think I should present my work? Should I arrange my scripts with a short description of how they are connected, or should I submit my whole .FLA, with notes?
Should I just choose a different example of my work, one with all the AS in one place?
