Flash CS6 bone tool armature tutorial


Today in class i made an attempt at following a tutorial about the bone tool in flash. The first thing i did as part of the tutorial was to find a picture of my face in Photoshop. i then cropped the image so that it was just my face. The next thing i did was import the image into flash and converted it into a movie clip. I then made other movie clips for different part of the body such as upper arms, neck, body etc.

i then used the bone tool so that my new body could have movement. I did this by joining movie clips together from head to tail in order to create joints. Using the arrow tool i was able to grab body parts and could then freely move them about however i wanted, which is a brilliant way of animating.

if you click on the head of the bone joint you can mess about with the properties of the joints and constrain them so that they are able to move like an actual human body.
  

these screenshots below show the results of the tutorial:
