Bouncing Balls Project – Shape Tween

Bouncing Balls Project Tutorial

Download File
The first project we will complete with Adobe Animate will help you learn the basics of creating objects on the stage and making them move from place to place. It utilizes computer generated formulas between keyframes, known as tweens, to define the path and speed of movement. This is path or vector animation.
This is a rather simple project that will only take one day to complete. However, it will require you to pay attention in class and follow the directions given to you by the instructor. You will create 10 different balls of various size and color.  There is a PDF tutorial located to the right to help you complete this project.

As you work, save your project as a .fla and name it lastname + first initial + balls.fla. When you are finished, export it as a .SWF file with the same name (ex: pettywballs.SWF).
