Also before diving head down into Flash MX drawing everything, think. Think about what will move and what will not. Think about what shall be on what layer and what shall be a symbol. Think about symbols within symbols within symbols... You don’t have to write it down but make sure you know where you’re going. A scene can get complicated enough with proper planing, it should never be attempted without it!Animation Part1:When you start a new document the first thing to do is to set your movie properties so that they make sense. I like to use a 4 x 3 aspect ration witch is what peoples are use to because it’s how televisions are. This is what’s best if you want to output your animation to video. Of course wide screen animation can be very cool to, and I’ve never seen a cartoon that was higher than large but I guess it’s a concept... Then why not set the background color so that the sky is already gonna be there? Finally 12 fps is clearly the most common frame rate in Flash animation since most cartoons made for television are animated with 12 drawings per second to and it’s the most convenient. You may try using a lower frame rate if you’re so concerned about file size but at some point it isn’t animation anymore when it gets so chunky...
