General questions about slightly animated flash christmascard.
Hey,
I'm completely new to flash & digital art. I got a project recently for a christmas card. Basically a digital drawing with some flash animation edited into it.
The rough sketch can be seen here:

Though I just have a slightest idea based on youtube videos of how to do it. Here's what I think I could do (correct me, if wrong):
1)Make the background image in PS as a digital painting
2)Make the characters into vectors in Illustrator.
3)Make the further frames/moving parts of character in Illustrator as well
4)Export the whole thing into Adobe Flash
5)Make it happend.
a)Does my plan have potential?(Though I can finally be sure of it in practice.)
b)What flash format to use to create it, considerint that it'll be used in web, sent out as emails? (There are a number of things in there -Action Script, AIR etc)
c)Any tips for a beginner?
I was planning to use a similar technique used in this tutorial:
All the best,
Andrew
