Study Notes

Tweening Types

Frame-by-Frame Tweening provides maximum control over tweened animation.
Classic Tweens convert text objects to ** Vector Shapes**.
Frame Script Tweening uses frame scripts.
Motion Tweening uses Eases to apply eases.
Frame-by-Frame Tweening consists of groups of individually selectable frames in the timeline.

Motion Tween Characteristics

Motion tweens have no fixed amount of time between keyframes.
They use Eases to control animation.

Classic Tween Features

Can apply multiple color effects, such as Tint and Alpha Transparency.
Ease presets for Classic Tweens can be accessed in the Eases panel.
Ease settings for rotation of an animated object are specified in the Rotate property.
Allows swapping of symbols or setting the frame number of a graphic symbol to display in a property keyframe.

Keyframe Creation

Keyframes are created in the timeline where something changes in the artwork.
Keyframes save the state of the animation at a specific point in time.

Ease Presets

Ease presets are pre-configured settings for Eases in Classic Tweens.
Can be applied separately to different properties (e.g., position, scale, rotation).
Allow for precise control over animation easing.

Classic Tween Purpose

Keyframes define changes in the animation.
Ease presets can be applied to achieve a specific animation style or effect.
Property-wise easing allows for separate easing control over different properties.

Adobe Animate Features

Motion Tweening is capable of animating 3D Objects.
Frame-by-Frame Tweening provides maximum control over tweened animation.

Filters and Effects

Adobe Animate Filters can be matched with their effects (e.g., Drop Shadow, Glow, Bevel).
Mobile App Design Principles can be matched with their descriptions (e.g., Simple Navigation, Visual Hierarchy).
Techniques for Using Adobe Animate Filters can be matched with their descriptions (e.g., Layer Blending, Filter Chaining).
Ease Presets can be matched with their corresponding properties in Classic Tweens (e.g., Bounce, Elastic, Spring).
Motion Guide Techniques can be matched with their descriptions (e.g., Parallel Motion, Orient to Path).
Usage Techniques can be matched with their application in Adobe Animate (e.g., Rapid Prototyping, Interactive Design).
