Task 7

Here I am going to show you how I made my animation move, in this as you can see, I made his arm move and the lever move at the same time.

Step one: I firstly drew the image I was going to do, but for this part, I drew each part of the image on a different layer, so I can move them separately, this made it a lot easier for me in the long run. The image below shows that I have also named my layers to make it easier for me to figure out what layer is which






Step two: I then added key frames to each of my layers so all my layers would show when it is being animated, I added the keyframes all at 50fps, but the choice of where to add your keyframes is up to you.











Step Three: Next you click on the layer you want to make move and click on modify>Convert to symbol and then convert it to a graphic




Then simply export it as a gif.

First 2D Animation Post

This blog is going to be based around my lessons on 2D animation.

 Family guy.I chose this because it is one of my favorite scenes and I also chose this because it is a short scene to use as an example.

Dexters Laboratory. Considering this is a Cartoon show for children, this is probably one of the funniest scenes I have seen in the show


The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. I chose this scene because its one of my favorite scenes that I can remember and also find.
