OVERVIEW

1. The first component is an abstract monochromatic animation that fills the entire stage. This animation will act as a “background” animation.
2. The second component is a smaller “foreground” animation that is also an abstract monochromatic animation that is complementary to the background animation (uses an opposite hue). This foreground animation will be created inside a movie clip symbol and placed on top of the background animation, so that 2 animations will be seen simultaneously.

• A design that is separate from concrete realities or specific objects, people or places
• A design that emphasizes lines, colors, generalized or geometrical forms, with reference to their relationship to each another.

	Create a separate color palette for each animation. In your color mixer choose Type: “Linear.” Have black on one end and white on the other. Add a pure hue in the center. This will give you the complete value range for that particular hue. For your background animation, you can draw a box outside of the stage area, and fill it with your color gradient. This will be your custom “Color Palette.”
	To pick a color from your custom color palette, click on the “Fill Color” box in your tools palette. Your cursor will turn into an eyedropper (this eyedropper is slightly different from the “Eye dropper” tool - in that it selects specific colors rather than entire fill gradients). Hover over your color gradient and click to choose a color.

For your Foreground animation, find the hue that is complementary to to the hue used in the background animation, and create your custom color palette on it’s own layer. To find the complementary color, look at the color wheel poster on the front wall. Set the layer property to “Guide.” This will make the color palette always available to you, but invisible to the viewer or when you test your scene.
