Door and Fish Animations

Door animation

To do this work I first uploaded the file from the Unit 10 folder, next I created a timeline by going to windows. Then I converted both objects to smart objects. After I click on the option to set the opacity for the doors, this is just basically a process of opposites which I'll explain later, but there is one main rule, make sure you have a door to show at the beginning, in other words set the closed door to 100% because that is it's first position. Then just make the last setting the opposite, so closed door 0% and the open door at 100%, and do the same for the rest until you get to 5 seconds.

Then to colour the background, and the floor and shadow of the door  I selected the paint brush tool, and painted the where I wanted the colour to by, to chose the colour I changed the foreground colour, which you will find by the two squares.

Fish animation


This was my favourite, because interesting than animating a boring object, such as a door. To do this I opened the file, then name the layers, convert each layer to a smart object, then set the frame rate to 12, highlight the stopwatch features. Set opacity to 0% for the big fish with open mouth, and 0% the same fish but wide, all these you will find on the layers, now your left with the closed mouth fish and little fish , then move the time indicator to 2.00 seconds, next move big fish with closed mouth close to little fish.
