Friday Flash Vocabulary

Good Morning -

Before moving forward with our next Flash assignment, I want to make sure we have a chance to make sure we are on the same page with terminology in flash.  I wouldn't call this a test, but I do feel it is important for us to be on the same page.  With that said, please explain each of the following Flash vocabulary terms, when you would use them and how they are helpful (or why they are important) when it comes to creating your animations - examples are appreciated where applicable:

What is a Keyframe and what is a Frame and when would you use each of these tools.
Symbol - What is it and when is it important to convert your drawings to a symbol?
Free Transform Tool - What can this tool help you do in Flash?
Line Tool - What are some special features of this tool besides being able to simply draw a line
Rectangle Tool - What can this tool be used to do.  What other tools are similar to this.
Classic Tween - Describe this tool and what it can do.  Please explain how you use it as well
Shape Tween - Describe this tool and what it can do.  Please explain how you use it as well
Classic Motion Guide - what does this tool enable you to do?
Layers - What are they and why are they important to include in your animations?
Selection Tool - What are some powerful features of this tool?
What is the Stroke and what is the Fill for every object drawn?

In addition to describing the above Vocabulary, please make sure that you have also posted both your airplane and ball bouncing down the stairs by the end of the class period today!
