Homework 2 - Week 2
- Assignment
Think about a simple animation that you would like to create, e.g. something that could be part of an animated comic strip, of a moving logo, of an explanatory animation, etc.
The Flash file must includes:
- At least one motion tween (animation) of an object
- A motion tween (animation) that includes a frame-by-frame animation (can be the same as the above)
