difference between shape tween and motion tween

In-class assignments: * Create a Flash Practice folder to store all of your in-class mini assignments.

1 - Create a 50 to 300 frame (or more…) animation using the “frame-by-frame” technique.

2 - multishape tween (hint - use layers!). 4 rectangles filling up screen, must have change in size and alpha (opacity)

3 - mountains - sunset animation (together in class)

4 - TEXT animation - together in class

5 - animation of your name, using layers and motion tweens, at least 150 frames (*hint - separate symbol for each letter, use Modify > Timeline >

Distribute to Layers so you can motion tween letters individually)

6 - Mask layer animation - background layer (drawn, not a frog!) with another mask layer on top, use motion tween with modified motion path

7 - Animation using 3D transform tools and motion tween (remember to create a symbol (must be a movie clip!) to use the 3D tools

8 - Nested Movie clip - like car w. wheels, but do something else! Make a scene that your object will move through (ex. Hill that car goes over) * tutorial in StuShare folder

9 - Animated button - (something other than a demo from class (circle)use animated movie clip in over or down state

10 - Bone tool animation - create movie clips, add bone tool elements, animate (much like a motion tween) using poses * tutorial in StuShare folder
