    This is, by far, the most tedious way to create animations.

    • Shape Tween

    • Motion Tween

    • Mask

    • Frame-by-Frame

    Correct Answer
    A. Frame-by-Frame
    Explanation
    Frame-by-Frame animation is the most tedious way to create animations because it involves creating each frame of the animation individually. This means that every single movement or change in the animation needs to be manually drawn or created for each frame. This method requires a lot of time and effort, making it a tedious process compared to other animation techniques like Shape Tween, Motion Tween, or Mask, which offer more automated and efficient ways to create animations.

    What is the file extension of the Adobe Flash documents?

    • .swf

    • .act

    • .fla

    • .fls

    Correct Answer
    A. .fla
    Explanation
    The file extension of Adobe Flash documents is .fla. This extension stands for "Flash Authoring," and it is used for the source files created in Adobe Flash software. The .fla files contain all the assets, animations, and coding used in creating the Flash document. Once the document is completed, it can be published and exported to other file formats, such as .swf, which is the file extension for the final Flash output that can be viewed in web browsers. However, the .fla file remains the editable source file for future modifications or updates.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    All the Scenes in a Flash document will automatically be played in order when it is exported as a movie.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When a Flash document is exported as a movie, all the scenes within it will play automatically in the order they appear. This means that viewers will see each scene in sequence without the need for any additional user interaction. Therefore, the statement "All the Scenes in a Flash document will automatically be played in order when it is exported as a movie" is true.

    We can hold-and-drag the FPS value on the timeline panel.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The given statement is true because on the timeline panel, we have the ability to hold and drag the FPS (frames per second) value. This allows us to adjust the speed at which the frames are played, giving us control over the animation or video playback. By holding and dragging the FPS value, we can increase or decrease the speed of the frames, which can be useful for various purposes such as slowing down or speeding up the animation.

    Changing this can sometimes make an animation look smoother.

    • Frame Rate

    • Key Frame

    • Color

    • Layer

    Correct Answer
    A. Frame Rate
    Explanation
    Increasing the frame rate can sometimes make an animation look smoother. Frame rate refers to the number of frames or images displayed per second in an animation. When the frame rate is higher, there are more frames shown in a given time, resulting in smoother motion. This is because the increase in frames provides more details and a more continuous flow of movement, reducing the perception of choppiness or jerkiness in the animation.

    These are objects that have been converted so that you can use the same image a number of times in a flash movie.

    • Layers

    • Frames

    • Symbols

    • Tweens

    Correct Answer
    A. Symbols
    Explanation
    Symbols are objects that have been converted so that you can use the same image a number of times in a flash movie. They allow for efficient use of memory and file size by storing the image or animation data once and reusing it throughout the movie. This helps to reduce the overall size of the flash file and improve performance.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    If we were to have a flash document consisting of 2400 frames all-in-all and our frame rate is set to 60 frames per second. How long will the flash movie play?

    • 30 seconds

    • 30 minutes

    • 40 seconds

    • 40 minutes

    • 12 seconds

    • 12 minutes

    Correct Answer
    A. 40 seconds
    Explanation
    If the flash document consists of 2400 frames and the frame rate is set to 60 frames per second, it means that each second of the flash movie will display 60 frames. Therefore, to calculate the length of the movie, we divide the total number of frames (2400) by the frame rate (60). This gives us 40 seconds, which is the correct answer.

    Which is not part of the Timeline Panel?

    • Color

    • Onion Skin

    • Frames

    • Layers

    Correct Answer
    A. Color
    Explanation
    The color is not part of the Timeline Panel. The Timeline Panel is used in software programs for creating animations and it typically includes features such as onion skinning, which allows the animator to see multiple frames at once, frames, which represent individual moments in the animation, and layers, which are used to organize and separate different elements of the animation. However, the color is not a specific feature or component of the Timeline Panel.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    We should not animate two or more objects in one layer.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Animating two or more objects in one layer can lead to complications and make it difficult to manage and edit the animation. Each object should ideally have its own layer to ensure better organization and control over the animation process. By separating the objects into different layers, it becomes easier to adjust their timing, position, and other properties individually. This also allows for better flexibility and makes it simpler to make changes or add additional effects if needed.

    • Hollow

    • Solid Black

    • Solid Grey

    • Solid Blue

    Correct Answer
    A. Hollow
    Explanation
    Empty key frames are indicated by a hollow circle on the timeline. This means that there is no content or animation assigned to that particular frame. It is often used to represent a pause or a blank state in the animation.

    Every animation needs a starting and ending point. _______________ are used to set these.

    • Frames

    • Key Frames

    • Timeline

    • Scenes

    Correct Answer
    A. Key Frames
    Explanation
    Key frames are used to set the starting and ending points of an animation. These frames define specific moments in the animation where important changes or actions occur. By setting key frames, animators can establish the desired positions, movements, and transformations of objects or characters throughout the animation. Key frames serve as reference points for the software to interpolate and generate the in-between frames, creating a smooth and continuous animation sequence.

    We can use motion tween on an object immediately without converting the object into a symbol

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Motion tweening is a feature in animation software that allows smooth transition of an object's position, size, and other properties over a specified period of time. In order to apply motion tween to an object, it needs to be converted into a symbol first. The symbol acts as a container for the object and allows the software to manipulate it using motion tweening. Therefore, the statement that motion tween can be used on an object immediately without converting it into a symbol is false.

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because there is no ActionScript 6.0 document type available for creating a new flash document. The latest version of ActionScript is ActionScript 3.0, so one would need to choose the appropriate document type for that version instead.

    Rate this question:

  • 26. 

    A key frame that contains objects will be represented by a ___________ circle.

    • Hollow

    • Solid Black

    • Solid Blue

    • Dashed Grey

    Correct Answer
    A. Hollow
    Explanation
    A key frame that contains objects will be represented by a hollow circle because a hollow circle typically signifies that there are objects or elements within it. In animation or video editing software, key frames are used to define specific points in time where certain changes or actions occur. By representing a key frame with a hollow circle, it indicates that there are objects or elements present at that particular point in the animation timeline.
