Flash Walk Cycle Animation

This blog is on another project I have created in my Contemporary Media class. It is a stickman walk cycle animation i have made in the Adobe Program called Flash. This is my first time making an animation such as this, so I was very excited to get started. I made this project in 30 different steps, I will show you one of the steps I took below, I used several types of different tools in the program and I'll be glad to tell you about them in this blog!

I will explain to you how I made the ground move and made it look as if the stickman is walking over it. First I created a new layer named "ground," I grabbed the rectangle tool and created a rectangle that goes off the screen below the stickman. I made the ground layer into a classic tween, and I inserted a keyframe at frame 30. I then clicked on my ground (rectangle) and dragged it to the corner where it doesn't show the end. And once that's finished, you finally have your moving ground!

This project was finally completed after three long weeks of learning what tools to use, and how to add sounds to my project. I am glad to have begun a project such as this and I'm prepared to learn many more advanced animations. I was very excited to show you what i'm capable of thus far, I'm prepared to learn much more and I can not wait to show you what my next project is!
