Fan Animation 4
This project was designed to learn the basics of animation in Adobe Flash, using frame-by-frame animation, motion tweening (now classic tweening in Adobe Flash CS4) and shape tweening. To prepare the images for these movies, I first photographed a fan in my kitchen. Afterwards I cut apart the basic parts of the image using clipping paths in Adobe Photoshop. Once the images were cut apart, I was able to animate the individual parts in Adobe Flash. Finally, I again liken the fan to a person, now in Adobe Illustrator vector graphics. The fan wants to demonstrate its juggling skills for you. Click the image to see the animation.
