Nowadays flash is used extensively for web presentations. As the content for the flash movie
increased and its file size also gets increased. When the file size gets increased means it will take
more time to load up. This may cause distraction of visitors from your website. So keeping the file
size as small as possible gives your greater advantage.
For this purpose we can split a large flash movie in to small movie clips and call them as external movie at runtime.
This will greatly reduce the loading time.

select the movie clip. Open the properties window. On the color list, select "alpha" and
set the value at 0%.

By selecting the 10th frame, open the action panel and write the actionscript stop();
Now save this flash file in the name "movieclip" and publish it.
