How to create a shape tween in Flash

This tutorial was created to assist others in gaining a basic understanding of the shape tween function in Adobe Flash.


Process in creating this movie

I started by finding tutorials on basic aspects of Flash, I completed them and then chose from among them which one I would like to do my tutorial on. I then walked through the steps while compiling them into a Word document. From those steps I wrote a script for both my audio and video capture. Using my script I first recorded my voice-overs with Audacity and then edited it to my liking. I then played back my audio while using Camtasia's video screen capture to create my video. After the video was complete I added the audio to it using Camtasia's video editor, syncing them as much as possible. I then exported it and posted it to YouTube. From there I embedded it into this website.


About

I had never used Flash before making this tutorial, and I found it was a fairly simple  program, but this tutorial is here to help give you a place to start.
