Flash technologies are now used quite actively in the creation of websites, games and cartoons. Creating your own cartoon using flash is not so difficult. For this, the principle of constructing symbolic animation is used, it is also called crossover.
Necessary
- - Adobe Audition program;
- - graphics editor.
Instructions
Step 1
Draw the main backgrounds, the places where all the events of your flash cartoon will take place. This is necessary in order for you to see the preliminary result of the work when creating the animation. Next, create sketches, sketches of the characters of the cartoon. Do this in a dedicated sketching program such as Art Rage. Here, create a general image of the characters, as well as templates for emotions, positions and facial expressions.
Step 2
Go to the program for working with flash, import sketches there to make a flash cartoon. Outline your sketch. Now it's not the main thing to decorate it beautifully, dream up and draw the hero in different poses, this will give you an idea of the character.
Step 3
Think about which parts of your character will be deformed or moveable. If it is completely mobile, then do not outline it entirely. And break it down into parts / symbols. To do this, select the object, press F8. In the window that opens, select the type of symbol - "graphic".
Step 4
Duplicate the existing symbol to draw new pivot symbols to simplify the process of creating a cartoon in Flash. Draw other characters, cartoon objects, etc. using the same principle.
Step 5
Take a prepared background and make a loop. To do this, draw a background within the work area, copy it and paste the copy to the right or to the left. Draw the empty space. Create a symbol from the resulting image, open it for editing.
Step 6
Stretch the resulting frame in the timeline by pressing the F5 key. Create a tween, make a keyframe on the last one (by pressing F6).
Step 7
Move the background so that the copied portion of the background image in the last frame matches the original background in the first frame. Exit to the main stage. Insert a symbol and stretch the frame. It will have a continuous background movement. Blend the character symbols over the background.
Step 8
Add soundtrack to your cartoon. If you already have a voice acting file in *.wav format, go to the "File" menu and select the "Open" command, select the desired file, then set the desired quality in the window that opens. Or just drag the audio file into the program window.
Step 9
You can also record voiceovers in the application itself. To do this, create a new file and start recording. Using the buttons on the toolbar, you can cut the desired part from the file or loop its playback.
