How I made my animation movie

 I first grabbed an image from the internet, then I opened up the Fireworks icon and I dragged my image from my desktop and put in on the blank page in fireworks. Then I had to make the background turn white by using 3 tools called: Marquee tool, Lasso tool, and the Magic Wand tool. After I was done doing that I saved each image to my desktop, then I opened up Flash and dragged the three images from my desktop to the blank screen in flash. My three objects appeared.

Now I want my left figure to flip in the middle and land to the bottom of the screen. So I clicked on insert then motion tween, then I clicked on the timeline on layer 1, then I clicked on the properties panel and where it says rotation you choose how many time you want your figure to rotate, I chose one and clockwise. When Im done with that I drag my figure to the bottom of the screen when it was originally on the top left side of the screen.

For the second figure i chose which is on the bottom right, is going to move to bottom left. So I clicked on my figure and went to insert, then clicked on motion tween and then I clicked on the tween span on clicked on number 27 and went to insert then clicked timeline, then keyframe, then I clicked on window and then on motion presents and chose the effect called bounce smoosh and clicked apply.

Thats it, my animation is done.

fl vs the video

The video we just watched is different from what we worked on yesterday because, now we don't have to work as hard to make the animation. The animation done in the computer is easier and faster, the computer provides you the tools and all the nessecities to make an animation. Back then in the days they didn't have our technology, so basically they had to make the animations by scratch; the hard way. Now we can make a movie in an hour, when back then to make a simple video took forever. Both animations have similarities and differences. They both showed a type of movie or video. differences is that the animation now is more clear and deliberate, and back then it was blurry and sort of messy.

Create motion

First you open a new file,  then click on the selector key and select your object after you have selected it draw an object. Then you go to insert and click on tweet and trace the object you have drawn then a green line is going to appear and you can put it in a straight line or wavy or zigzags. Then you press enter and your drawing will move according to what kind of way you designed you green line then on the timeline you can make it go fast or slow. Then you could look at the toolbar and mess around with your object.

What I learned

Brian was WRONG! Because even though the poem wasn't copyrighted, the poem still belonged to Sarah, she made it up. Although if she gets her poem copyrighted its still going to be with her for about 70 years after her death. The poem will still belong to her.

Copyright Vocabulary

1. Copyright- It belongs to that person and no one else can claim because it's already yours by law.

2. Fair Use-You can use it but no for long, like there's a limit of the portion you want to use.

4. Intellectual Property- If you just imagine it, then you can't copyright it.

5. Patent- If you have a new invention then you take it to a patent officer, you could use it for a limited time and if you want more time you can ask for an extension.

7. Phonorecords-Something is available in a digital way.

8. Plagiarism- You copy someone else's work word per word, its exactly the same.

9. Public Domain- When someone creates something and then it expires then its now open for the public.

10. Trademark- A symbol or slogan representing that its yours.

the love poem

Brian is wrong because he never wrote the poem, Sarah did. He's taking ALL the credit when he's actually the one that didn't write anything. He should of asked if its okay if she can use it for a song, since the song is a hit. He should give her some money because she's the one with the idea of the poem. If it wasn't for the poem he wouldn't have had money or anything. So she deserves to get her share also, regardless if it was plenty of years ago. If i was Sarah i would have taken this to court and let the judge decide it all.
