HTML5 Animation for Beginners

Setting Up Your HTML5 Animate Project

To get started with HTML5 animation in Adobe Animate, you'll need to create a new project. To do this, click on the “File” menu and select “New”. In the “New Document” dialog box, select the “HTML5 Canvas” preset. This will create a new project with the following settings:

• Document size: 550px x 400px
• Frame rate: 24 fps
• Background color: #FFFFFF

Creating Your First Animation

To create your first animation, you'll need to add some objects to the stage. To do this, click on the “Insert” menu and select “New Symbol”. In the “New Symbol” dialog box, select the “Graphic” option. This will create a new symbol that you can use to draw your animation.

To draw your animation, use the drawing tools in the toolbar. You can also use the timeline to control the timing of your animation. To do this, click on the “Window” menu and select “Timeline”. The timeline will appear at the bottom of the Animate window. You can use the timeline to add keyframes and tweens to your animation.

Exporting Your Animation

Once you're finished creating your animation, you can export it to HTML5. To do this, click on the “File” menu and select “Export”. In the “Export” dialog box, select the “HTML5 Canvas” format. This will create an HTML5 file that you can upload to your website.
