Help with my animation...

Hello,

I know this may be annoying, or whatever, but I'm stuck with this project that has to be made in Flash and I simply cannot cope.

I can only do the basics really, motion tween, etc.

I'd like the core of the animation to be this gun shooting one of the crayons.

So I need help with two things I think; How to make the gun appear as if it is shooting by itself? I would like to make the trigger being pulled slightly and the top bit move backwards and then shot forwards to create the shot.

Then I would like to follow the 'bullet' as its flying, so I was thinking of that sort of fuzzy/running background to make the crayon appear as if it is flying?

How possible are these things to do?

Can you please help me :<

Thanks.

Correct answer kglad

each crayon should be a separate movieclip.  you then animate them just like any other object in flash using timeline tweening or actionscript.

the parts of the gun that you want to animate need to be separate movieclips.
