Assignment 2

My 'One Malaysia' poster theme is under icons/symbols and it is about the Malaysia National flower; Bunga Raya or known as hibiscus in English. Bunga Raya was chosen by our first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman. Symbolically, Bunga Raya's red colour represents courage and each of the flower petals represents the five National Principles.

1. I have set the stage at 320x240 px with 12 frames per second but I later change it into 24 frames per second since it is too short.



2. 'File' >> 'Import' >> 'Import to Library' to transfer my Assignment 1 poster into the stage. I also change all the layers into movie clips.



3. Due to difference size of my Assignment 1 (A4 size) and the stage size, I have to resize them by 'right click' >> 'free transform' so they can fit inside stage and I have to adjustable the layers position.



4. To start, I have insert and convert five National Principles' text into symbol.



5. I have decided to use 'Alpha' effect for my typography. At the first frame of each Principles, I have use 'right click' >> 'create motion tween' >> 'Colour Effect' and insert 'Alpha' by decreasing the opacity to 0. Then at the somewhat in the middle, I will use the Alpha effect again but this time I have to increase the opacity to 100.











6. For the Malaysia flag, I have imply blur effect on it. Instead of create motion tween at first frame in flag layer, I have to do it at the middle of the frame since it is easier to work with. Simply 'right click' >> 'Create Motion Tween' >> 'Filters' >> 'Properties' >> 'Blur'. For the middle frame, I have set the blur value to be 0 in high quality. After settle it, I move toward first frame and use the same effect but I change the blur value into 20 in high quality.









7. The last effect I will use is 'glow'. Similar to 'blur' effect, I just use 'right click' >> 'Create Motion Tween' >> 'Filters' >> 'Properties' >> 'Glow'. I only make the colour adjustment from red to yellow with 200% blur strength for first frame while in the middle frame, I have change the colour from yellow to white with 100% blur strength. I done the effect for both 'Whereas Our Country' and 'Malaysia' layer.
