On this page, I am going to tell you how I do simple animation techniques.
For todays lesson, I'll start off with something simple, a frame by frame rotating cube. |
 |
1. First, you would set the view. Find the layers window. At the
bottom of that window, there should be a toolbar. On that toolbar, there
is a button that has a blue box, on top of a slightly less blue box, click it.
That is the onionskin tool. It helps you see what was in the frames directly
before and after your current frame. |
 |
2. Next draw your box. Start with a simple Hexagon,
with a vertex at the top and bottom. |
 |
3. Connect three of the vertecies like so. |
 |
4. Create a blank keyframe. The onionskin tool should help you see where
your box was. |
 |
5. Then, draw a box that has rotated a little bit. |
 |
6. To continue making it rotate, repeat steps 4 and 5 until you feel
that it has rotated enough. To see a good end result, go to the flash page. |
