Explosion
The power you have when blasting a title to pieces makes this plug-in a favorite. If you
are not so destructively minded, try reversing an explosion effect, having all the small
pieces come together to form a whole. In this tutorial, learn how to disintegrate your title.
(Settings: 30 frames, 15 fps)
To disintegrate your title:
1
In the Easy Palette file directory, select
Object Effects: Explosion. Click the F/X
button on the Attribute Toolbar. Explo-
sion appears on the Properties Menu.
2
On the Timeline Control, drag the
leftmost end point of the Control Line to
frame 5. This ensures that the explosion
effect will not take place right away.
Add a key frame to frame 30 of the
animation.
3
At the first frame of the plug-in effect
(frame 5), set the Movement Type to
Left, the Collapse Type to Ascending,
and the Action Sequence to Forward.
Set the Level to 0 and the Rotate value
to 30.
4
At frame 30, set the Level to 100 for a
complete explosion. Enter 100 for the
Rotate value.
5
Select Position from the Properties
Menu, and add key frames to frames 25
and 30 on the Timeline Control.
6
At frames 1 and 25 for Position, all
coordinates on the Location Toolbar
should be 0. At frame 30, set the Y
value to -300.
7
Click Play to preview the effect.
Experiment with different values for
Variation. Each number you enter
produces a slightly different variation of
the explosion effect.
