My very first flash animation

Making basic flash animations it's actually not hard at all, let's take a look how to make a very basic one.

1.
 

Start Adobe Flash Professional and open a new ActionScript document.

Doesn't matter if you choose 2.0 or 3.0 version.

 
 
2.
 

Let's set the appropriate workspace.

In the menu click Window, Workspace and choose Classic.

 
 
3.
 

Select the Oval Tool (see picture).

The drawing tools are pretty much the same as you may know them from Photoshop or other Adobe products.

 
 
4.
 

Draw a circle.

 
 
5.
 

Now on the time line click the frame 20 (see picture).

 
 
6.
 

Now right click the frame 20 and choose Insert Keyframe.

 
 
7.
 

Now press the V key to activate the Selection Tool.

Click the circle and drag it to the other side of the document.

 
 
8.
 

Now right click somewhere between the frame 1 and frame 20 and choose Create Motion Tween.

 
 
9.
 

If you get the Convert selection to symbol for tween message, click OK.

 
 
10.
 

And you're finished.

To test your first flash animation, just press Enter to play it.
