P3. Animation process and equipment set up

Flash

I am using flash to create the "dream" effect. For each object I created I made a different layer. I then put the object in the right position by using keyframes. To move an object, such as the football I used a motion tween. To do this you "ctrl" and click on the start keyframe. You then press "create motion tween". To get it moving you put the object at the starting position on the first keyframe then at the end of the keyframe you put the object where you want it to stop. You can tell that the motion tween has worked if a line shows the journey of the object and if the keyframes turn blue.

Stop motion in flash:

After I had the stop motion pictures I needed I imported them into flash and put them into the order they needed to be in. I then edited some of them e.g. added z's to show snoring. I did it all on different layers and used keyframes to place them, like I did before.

All animation put together:

After editing the stop motion in flash I put all the videos I had created together in premiere pro. I also added sound effects and effects e.g film dissolve.
