Animation

For my animation I had originally decided to remake a song that I really liked but it turned into something a little different since the song would take to long and only doing a portion of it would make it seem incomplete. I decided to make the animation set around a morning sunrise setting in a city. I wanted the city to only be a shadow outline so that is why i made the graphic of just the outline of the city. I wanted birds to fly over briefly so I created a movie clip and and had the wings look up and down and had 3 layers for each of the birds. Then i also wanted stars because is tarted wanting the animation to look somewhat surreal, i thought it would be really cool to see stars in the morning during sunrise so i created another movie clip and had a small star shape tween into a larger star to give the appearance of a twinkle. I also had a really brief shadow of a creature lurking over the city which as very simple to create using the line tool and the pointer to cure along with the paint bucket to fill it in with black. Then i had to moon appear at the very end of the animation instead of the sun to be unexpected, to replay the animation I had a small bird appear similar to the flying birds before. I thought it would make a great replay button because when you click it the wings flap making it look like its flying. I enjoyed making it and i think it came out wonderfully.
