Create falling snow in Flash CS3 and After Effects CS3

This Adobe software tutorial shows you how to create falling snow in Flash with the help of some animation in After Effects. See how to use CS3 integration to create falling snow over an image of cedar trees. Use After Effects to create the falling snow, then export the effect as a Flash video and drop it on top of the image. Experiment with blending modes to get some creative results. This is a great solution for anyone who doesn't want to have to write a ton of ActionScript to create falling snow.
