Flash Zooming Effect

Flash Tutorial to create a zooming effect using basic tweening

Please carry out the following steps in Macromedia Flash to create the zooming effect.

1. In a new layer draw any vector object, say a circle. Convert this object into a graphic symbol (select the object and click F8) and name it, say 'g_circle'.
2. Insert Keyframe (F6) in the 10th frame. Now go back to frame 1 and click on the circle object. Reduce its size to about 25% of its original size (use the Info panel or free transform tool).
3. Now go to frame 10 and click on the circle object. Reduce its Alpha value from 100% to 20% in the Color Panel of the properties window.
4. Now right click on frame 1 and select 'Create Motion Tween' (A blue arrow will be displayed in the time line between frames 1 & 10 - this shows that the motion tween was created successfully).
5. Save your work and test the Movie (Ctrl + Enter). That's it, your cool zooming effect is ready!
