Today we are creating an animated Movie Clip. We will begin just as we did with the Graphic Symbol and the Button -- by drawing a picture and converting it to a Symbol. So draw your picture, go to MODIFY > CONVERT TO SYMBOL > MOVIE CLIP, and click OK.
Now [just as we did with the buttons] double-click your new Symbol. You can now create some sort of animation. When finished, click back on "Scene 1" to return to your stage.
You will notice that even though you have an animation, you are still on the first frame of your movie. This allows you to animate an object (a car, person, alien, etc.) and modify the size or location of the object without having to change every frame.
Next we will drag out different "Instances" of your movie clip and resize, reposition, and recolor each one.
