Animation Tutorials

This is a sequence that i first made in order for me to learn the animation techniques that were available from Final Cut Express, which i think will really help me when it comes to designing and animating my logo which i really needed help with.  It is not quite as good as it could be, but my skills are developing from learning how to use these animations.

Above is an image that I used the Grab tool in order to obtain this image and shows how i was able to use fades, to make the lighthouse light fade in and out and also extend, in order to show that the light didn't just flash on and off but travelled off the page starting at the lighthouse.
