| Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on “'''Animate a toy train” '''using '''Synfig.'''

|-
| 00:06
| In this tutorial we will learn to animate the toy train which we created earlier.

|-
| 00:12
| For this tutorial, I am using

'''Ubuntu Linux''' 14.04 OS

'''Synfig''' version 1.0.2

|-
| 00:21
| Let’s open our '''Train Synfig''' file.

|-
| 00:25
| Please open your '''Train Synfig '''file which you saved on your system.

|-
| 00:29
| Let us start with the animation.

|-
| 00:31
| Click on the drop down list of '''Engine group layer.'''

|-
|00:36
|Right-click on the any of the '''Wheel group layer. '''

|-
|00:39
|Select the '''Star '''layer.

|-
| 00:41
| Again right-click and click on''' New layer. '''

|-
| 00:45
| Then click on '''Transform '''and on''' Rotate.'''

|-
| 00:50
| Now the '''Rotate effect''' has been applied to the wheel.

|-
| 00:54
|Move the anchor point to the centre of the wheel.

|-
| 00:58
| In the '''Animation panel,''' click on '''Turn on animate editing mode''' icon.

|-
| 01:05
| Type 24 in the '''Current frame''' box.

|-
| 01:09
| Go to the '''Parameters panel.'''

|-
| 01:11
| Double-click on the value of '''Amount parameter '''and change the value to 360.

|-
| 01:18
|Observe that '''waypoints''' are created on the '''Time track panel.'''

|-
| 01:23
| Click and drag the '''Time cursor''' between the 2 '''waypoints '''and''' '''check the rotation of the wheel.

|-
| 01:29
| Save the file by pressing '''Ctrl + S'''.

|-
| 01:33
| Let us now create a time loop for this rotation effect.

|-
| 01:37
| Right-click on '''Rotate effect layer '''and''' '''click on''' New layer.'''

|-
| 01:42
| Then click on '''Other '''and on''' Time Loop.'''

|-
| 01:48
| In the '''Parameters panel,''' tick the checkbox of '''Only For Positive Duration.'''

|-
| 01:55
| Next, let us add the '''Rotate & Time Loop''' effects to all the wheels.

|-
| 02:00
| So, select both the effect layers using the '''Shift key. '''

|-
| 02:05
|And press''' Ctrl '''and''' C '''keys to copy the layers.

|-
| 02:09
| Now, right-click on the '''Wheel-1 group folder. '''

|-
|02:13
|Press '''Ctrl '''and''' V''' keys to paste the layers.

|-
| 02:17
| Repeat the same process for all the wheels.

|-
|02:24
| Now the rotation effect has been applied to all the wheels of the toy train.

|-
|02:29
| Save the file once again by pressing '''Ctrl + S'''.

|-
| 02:34
| Let us now animate the train.

|-
| 02:37
| Select all the group layers except '''Rail.'''

|-
| 02:41
| Group them together and rename the group layer as '''Train.'''

|-
| 02:47
| Make sure that the '''Time cursor''' is in the zeroth frame.

|-
|02:52
| Using Shift key, drag the train outside the '''canvas''' to the right.

|-
| 02:57
| Move the '''Time cursor '''to the 100th frame.

|-
| 03:01
| Using '''Shift key, '''drag the train to the left side outside the '''canvas'''.

|-
| 03:07
| Click on '''Turn off animate editing mode''' icon.

|-
| 03:11
|Save the file by pressing '''Ctrl + S'''.

|-
|03:15
| Let us now render the animation.

|-
|03:18
|For this, go to '''File '''and click on '''Render.'''

|-
| 03:22
| In the '''File name '''field, change the extension to '''avi '''and change the''' Target''' to''' ffmpeg.'''

|-
| 03:31
| Increase''' '''the quality to 9 and click on the '''Render''' button.

|-
| 03:36
| Now go to '''Desktop. ''' Right click on the''' avi''' file and play using''' Firefox web browser.'''

|-
| 03:43

|-
| 03:47
