Making a Motion Tween In Flash

Hello, I'm John and I'm here with Mac heads, and I'm here to show you how to make a simple flash animation.

So first, you want to open a window and find Adobe Flash CS3. Here it is, and let's just open that up. Okay! Now, um, when you first open it, you'll notice that it says all different kinds of ActionScript. Let's, I'm going to use ActionScript 3.0. Well, I'm not going to be showing you many, um, ActionScript lines.

Okay, um, for now, I'm just going to be showing you, uh, motion tweens. In my next videos, I might be showing you more. So let's, um, make an oval. Let's, uh, make it cool looking, and there we go.

Now, let's, these are the frames. The frames are like little pieces in a movie, um, little pictures. The default is 12 frames per second. If you double-click on that, you can change it, and you can change the dimensions of your video too.

So let's go into like the 100th frame and press F6. F6 is what makes, um, a new keyframe. So in this one, let's click on the ball and let's move it over there. And now, let's press F6 again. So all these, it's there over there, it's there.

So if we press Ctrl-click and say create motion tween, it'll automatically make the thing like that. So if you play it, the ball will be moving automatically. You don't have to move it on each frame.

Now, let's say you don't want it to loop. Like, as you can see, it's gonna loop. What you can do is you can just click on the last frame and then, um, make it show the code. So to make it so the code say, um, Actions for ActionScript, and you'll see it starts off with no code.

The code to make it stop is "stop," and then, um, semicolon thingies, and then semicolon, and I'm pretty sure that that's it. So then, apply it, and it stops.

Okay, so um, that's a simple, um, animation. You can also make a new layer. You can call that background and just like make a cool background like, uh, that. And then you can use the rectangle tool.

Now, you can make that behind the ball instead of in front of it. If you play it, you got yourself a cool background and a cool ball moving.

So, um, that's a very simple animation of, uh, making a motion tween in Flash. Thank you very much. Have a nice day!
