Week 9 : Animation Terms

Today is the starting of our second part in this subject which is called "Animation". This part will be lecture by Assoc Prof Dr Jamaludin Harun.

For the introduction, Dr Jamal was told us to flash back how to make an animation using Adobe Flash software. He also remind us that he not going to teach from basic because all of us should be have some experience in this software during our Authoring System class.

For flash back our knowledge in Adobe Flash, Dr give us several terms which is used before.

• Keyframes - allowed to insert an instance
• Tweening - in between of key frames.
•  Onion Skinning - creating animated and editing movies to see several frames at once
• Frame by frame - showing a series of frames
• Frame rate - number of frames per second (fps). For computer animation just enough to use 12 - 15 frames per second.
