I’m trying to re-create this sort of Flash animation for a site. It’s various pictures moving around within a border. I’m not real sure what this is called so I attached the example file. Here’s the link where I found it, in case the attachment doesn’t work, http://atomickitten.wireless-ms.co.uk/. It’s the animation on the right.
That should be achievable with a motion tween and a mask… Put a mask of the shape over the photograph, then tween the image round so it moves within the mask’s frame.
Great! Thanks! I sort of created one like it, but one more problem, how do I get the mask inside a border? like the example? I know I can’t do it with stroke, what are some ways to accomplish it?
Just place the border (a stroke or whatever with nothing inside) as a symbol on another layer. If you put it over the top of the mask, it should display fine.
Cools! It works! Thank you so much for your help.
