ETCetera: Adobe Flash- Animated Banner

How to Make a Banner

Open your Adobe Flash and choose Action Script 2.0

Please familiarize this workspace:

First, we need to change our stage size.

In the properties tab beside the stage, you should find properties size;

Now, we need to create a background for our banner.

Select your Rectangle tool and trace our stage size when using our rectangle tool like this:

You can choose any color for your background as long you won’t be having any trouble filling your text inside your banner.

You can change your family character in your favor.

Example:

Now, insert any text as long as it fits in your background and select your text and move it at the left side of the stage.

Example:

Then in our timeline, both our layers should be inserted with a keyframe under the 30^th playhead.

Example:

Now, select your text layer and go to your 30^th playhead keyframe.

There we should select our text and move it to the right side of our stage.

Example:

Final step:

· In our text layer, right click in between our 1^st keyframe and 30^th playhead keyframe then select create classic tween

Also please take notice that our text layer should be above our background layer.

· Just hold select our text layer and drag it above our background layer.
· In your menu bar go to file; click export then select export movie and chose your designated location for your banner.

I saved mine in my desktop because it’s a lot easier to find.

Open your exported movie banner to see your banner.
