Objective - pupils should understand the use of a stop action and gain some understanding of the use of movie clips in flash.

Starter

Activity 1

Now that your e-card is beginning to take shape, you need to insert a stop action. You will notice that when you test your movie it just keeps repeating. Use the tutorial on the left to insert a stop action.

Activity 2

You can now start experimenting with more challeniging animation. We can build a 'movie clip' within a flash animation that can work in a way that you define. Look at the tutorial on the left and have a go at producing your own animated movie clip.
