Six Differences between wheel and bug

1. The wheel was a motion tween inside the MC, while the bug was a frame by frame animation.
2. In the bug, we used a greater number of layouts in our animation
3. We created the body parts for our bug
4. On the wheel we had to break apart the rim from the tire
5. On the wheel, we used a complete 360 degree rotation
6. The wheel was already in a file format

How to make a MC

1. Open the file, then zoom in to make it easier to select the rim of the tire
2. Next, on your Modify tab break apart.
3. Select everything inside the tire, use shift key to highlight all necessary parts
4. Take out the rim, go to modify and convert to a symbol.
5. Make sure that you make your symbol into a movie clip, don't forget to use MC (movie clip) on your name
6. Next, on your library, double click your MC to go into your MC
7. Your symbol will appear smaller, don't panic, go back to zoom and click on Show all option
8. Select your symbol, and on your Modify tab, make a motion out of you symbol
9. Click yes when it ask you if you want to make this in a motion tween
10. By default the motion tween will be 12 frames, extend your motion tween to whatever length you want.
11. Add however many details you want, either rotate, move, etc.
12. Last but not least, have fun doing it! 

What Im gonna do for 4th period

Im my animation, an eagle will swoop down and capture Noemi fish, and feed it to its birdies. The eagle will seem to go down when objects in the background move vertically up. Ex-clouds. Then the lake will appear were the eagle will vertically line up with the lake then capture the fist. Finally go up.
