Course Description

In these lessons, students will learn how to choose a picture from their computer and import it into the library. They will also learn how to choose the asset warp tool and use the edit toolbar feature. This will mean that we can animate pre-made objects from scratch, as well as import, edit and animate bitmap pictures. Students will learn how to place joints on the drawing bitmap image, and how to remove any unnecessary joints. We will also explore how to use the timeline to create keyframes, which will allow us to store the animation for the joints. In this course, students will learn how to import pictures to the library, how to create joints for rigging, and how to rig a picture bitmap by using the asset warp tool.
