Basic Principles of Complex Animation

  • This part is only useful once you know how to manipulate tags efficiently.
  • The speed of change of the tags will be dependent on how it’s timed.
    • If the change is quick and the timing is short, it’ll be intense.
    • If the change is slow and the timing is long, it’ll be relaxed.

Animated Tag Stacking

\t Tag Stacking
  • 0 - Starting time (by the millisecond)
  • 4900 - Ending time (by the millisecond)
  • 1 - Acceleration of the animation (multiplier of 1)
    • You can stack \t tags in the same line as long as you add the appropriate starting and ending time.
    • The Numbers marked in yellow are variables and can be adjusted + it’s relative to the timed line.
      • In this case, the line is 5 seconds long (5000ms)

Move Stacking
  • Line 15 is moving on the 30th of a second
  • Line 16 is moving at a full second
  • The final position of Line 15 is the starting position of Line 16
    • By this, since the move tag can’t be stacked in one line, we go around this by using multiple lines, creating an illusion of acceleration.

Extreme Example
  • An example to represent how far and complicated you can stack tags and create something like this.
  • It’s messy, I know.
