How to Animate 


 In my Planet Project we had to animate a shadow effect on our planet and the first thing I did was go to the window tab, open that up the timeline option and then make sure I'm on create video timeline.
 


After I have that I will click on the create video timeline button and it'll bring up all my layers.



Since I was going to change my shadow effect I'll click on shadow and it'll show me a bunch of options. I'm going to then click on the little stop watch right beside opacity because that's how I'm going to change the shadow effect.

 
Next, while the opacity of the shadow is 100% I'm going to drag the red and blue bar to the very beginning of the animation and click on the diamond in the between the two arrows. Then I'm gonna drag the bar to the very end of the animation and do the same by clicking on the diamond. This just means that the start and end will both have the shadow opacity at 100%.



Because I'm trying to make the shadow fade I'm going to drag my bar the the 2.5 second mark and that's where I'm gonna make my change. Once my bar is there I'm going to change my opacity percent, and that's on the right side of my screen. Since the 2.5 second mark is where I'm going to make my shadow fade completely I will click on the opacity and put it to 0%. Then I'll click on the diamond to put it in place.



 

And with that I'm done my animation. So when i click my play button it'll start out with a full shadow, slowly fade , fade away completely at the 2.5 second mark, it'll slowly come back, and by the end it'll be 100% again.
