Flash CS4 Motion Editor
In this project we’ll create a banner ad of a rising sun over the mountains using the Flash CS4 motion editor to tween the motion of the sun along a curved path and to change its brightness.
[If you want to create your own project and follow along with this tutorial, the lesson files are available for download here]

Feel free to toss it in , Omar. Easing is a bit more complex in CS4 so I left it out.

I need my background to fade in and then out, my type to move to left a few cm. and then another pic to fade in with text moving right a few cm. Then to loop again and again with more pics.

how do you do that?

Guys, Man, having Adobe remove the UI that easily allows quick transitions fade in and out etc is a MAJOR issue. Everywhere I look I am finding upset people about this nice feature that lets you pump out objects without being an Action Script junky. Motion Tween, cool. A GREAT tutorial would be showing older users how you can actually still use the CS4 product at all!! Without transitions and ActionScript training, I am ready to downgrade back to MX2004. HELP!!! and love your work. thank you.

Hey this was great. I too have just created a movie clip as a header for our website. My issue is the clip replays over and over. I have added the stop action to the last frame of my animation but am not able to.. It tells me that the current selection can not have actions applied to it. Any thoughts?
Thank you
