06.+Motion+Tween

=**Symbols**.=
 * 1) Create a new Flash document. Draw a tree. Select the entire tree (by either double-clicking on the fill). Then go to the "Modify" menu and select "Convert to Symbol." You should see the figure below.
 * 1) Change the name of symbol to "tree" and click "OK."
 * 2) Click on the "Window" menu and select "Library." Once you create a symbol, you can make as many copies as you need by dragging clicking on the icon in the library and dragging copies onto the stag.
 * 3) Add more trees to make a Forrest.
 * 4) Use the free transform tool to resize some of the trees. You can also bring trees to the front (or push others to the back) by right clicking on a tree and selecting "Arrange."
 * The symbol in the library is a reusable object and every copy on the stage is called an instance.**

= **Motion Tweens** =
 * Motion Tweens: **
 * Motion tweens are just like shape tween, except that motion tween move objects over time not change shape.
 * The phrase "motion tweening" is a little misleading because you can also use it to make symbols change shape, color, and visibility (as well as move).


 * 1) Create a new Flash document.
 * 2) Create an oval and turn it into a movie symbol.
 * 3) Name the symbol "oval."
 * 4) Go to the timeline and insert a frame into frame 20 (NOT a keyframe).
 * 5) Right-click on any frame between keyframe 1 and 20. Select "Create Motion Tween." The space between frames 1 and 20 should turn blue.
 * 6) Go to frame 20 and move the oval to somewhere on the right.
 * 7) Test the movie. You should see the oval move smoothly from its location in frame 1 to its location in frame 20.


 * Important**.
 * (1) You should only do motion tweening with a symbol.**
 * (2) Tweening is short for "in between" and refers to filling in the frames between a keyframe and up to, but not including, the next keyframe**.


 * Ogre's come out at night...**
 * 1) Use your forest as the background.
 * 2) Create a new layer and add an additional tree that shrek will come out from behind. Lock the layer.
 * 3) Create another new layer and add shrek. Make shrek a motion tween and have him enter the forest from off of the stage.
 * 4) As shrek enters the forest use a shape tween to change the sky to night time.
 * 5) As the sky changes to night, use a motion tween to set a sun.
 * 6) Be creative and add additional elements to finish the animation..
 * 7) Save and upload to your wiki when you are finished.

 * Think about why Shrek is in the forest?
 * Is he scaring someone?
 * Is he afraid?
 * Is he going home?
