WindMill Posted!




Good Morning and Happy Friday!  For today's blog post I need you to post your Windmill assignment to your blog.  For this to be successful, before submitting please insert a "FRAME" (not keyframe) at 240 on your timeline on each layer you drew on!  This is very important.  Steps for making your windmill rotate are below:

Step 1:  Draw your windmill (the spinning portion only)
Step 2: Convert your windmill to a symbol and name it windmill
Step 3: Double click on your windmill - you have to click on some piece of the object you drew!
Step 4: Now you should see "windmill" next to "scene 1"
Step 5: Rotate your windmill 1/4 of a turn 4 times.  I would recommend keyframes 20, 40, 60 and then 78
Step 6: After you have completed a full rotation of your windmill (1 only), click back on scene 1
Step 7: Go to "Control," "Test Scene" and watch it move
Step 8: Open a new layer (or multiple layers) and begin drawing your background!  Make it fun, creative, colorful ... well ... and FUN!
Step 9: When complete, insert a frame on your timeline at 240 for every layer.  Just a frame, not a keyframe!
Step 10:  Follow the directions on the previous blog for upload instruction to youtube and then to your blog!

Be sure below your post to discuss what you enjoyed most about this project, what challenges you faced and most importantly what new tools you learned and/or used to create your final product!  Be thorough!  Thanks!
