Four Corners Animation
Description – Students learn the basic tools and use of Flash timeline, frames, key frames, and tweens to create a 120 frame (10 second) animation. The animation must have at least 5 layers (1 layer for each ball, and a layer for an object that will appear, spin and disappear, the show up again at the very end), and use tweens to create synchronized animation that has 4 different colored balls or objects positioned in the 4 corners of the canvas that close to the center either individually or at the same time, then pause and split back out to the original 4 corners position. When the balls split away at the end, an object will appear, spin, disappear, and show up again at the end.
Reflection – This project was a lot of fun to make. Now that I have the hang of Flash Adobe doing projects in the application is much more enjoyable. The most fun part to animate was the plane, it was really fun to make it spin around and crash. This was also good practice for this application, since I wasn’t very good with Flash before. This project was a lot of fun and I’m really looking forward to the next project too!
