Narration
00:00 Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on “Rocket animation” using Synfig.
00:06 In this tutorial, we will learn to create:

Fire effect,

00:11 Cut out effect,
00:13 Change slope & offset parameters and Feather effect.
00:19 We will also learn to do a rocket animation using all of the above.
00:24 To record this tutorial, I am using:

Ubuntu Linux 14.04 OS,

Synfig version 1.0.2

00:34 Let us open Synfig.
00:36 I have a rocket image in my Documents folder.
00:40 I have created this image in Inkscape.
00:43 Let us import the image. Go to File. Click on Import.
00:49 Select the Rocket image. Click on Import.
00:53 Group the rocket image. Name the group layer as Rocket.
00:59 Using the orange dot in the handle, reduce the size of the image as shown.
01:06 Press Ctrl and S keys to save our file.
01:11 I will save the file in the Desktop. Change the filename to Rocket hyphen animation.
01:20 Click on Save. Now, let us create the fire.
01:23 Change the Fill color to black and the Outline color to white.
01:31 Go to Layers panel. Right click on the Rocket group layer.
01:36 Select New layer, click on Gradient and then on Noise Gradient.
01:43 A black and white noise gradient is created on the canvas.
01:47 Go to Tool box. Click on Gradient tool.
01:52 In the Tool options, click on create a linear gradient.
01:57 Now, click and drag the on the canvas from top to bottom.
02:02 Observe a black and white linear gradient is created on the canvas.
02:08 Select the Transform tool.

Change the layer name to BW-Gradient.

02:16 In the Parameters panel, change the Blend method to Subtract.
02:22 Select the Rectangle tool. Draw a rectangle covering the whole canvas.
02:29 Click on the Transform tool and change the layer name to Orange.
02:35 Now, let us change the color of the rectangle to warm orange.
02:40 In the Parameters panel, click on the Color parameter.
02:45 Change the RGB values to 100, 55 and 10 respectively.

Close the dialog box.

02:56 Again in the Parameters panel, change the Blend method to Color.
03:01 Group the Noise gradient layer. Change the name to Moving-base.
03:10 In the Parameters panel, right click on Origin.
03:14 Click on Convert and then on Linear.
03:19 Click on the drop down list of Origin.
03:22 Change the Slope values to 0 and -100 and Offset values to 0 and 100 respectively.
03:32 Now the fire effect is created.

Click on the Play button to check the effect.

03:38 Next, let us cut the effect according the size of the rocket.
03:43 Now group all the layers except the Rocket layer.
03:47 Change the name to Fire.
03:50 Press Ctrl and S keys to save the file.
03:54 Go to Tool box, select the Cutout tool.
03:58 Cut the fire effect as shown. Observe the group layer name has changed to Fire cut.
04:06 Select Transform tool.
04:09 Using the orange dot of the handle, reduce the size of the fire.
04:14 Move this layer below the Rocket layer.
04:19 Click on the drop down list. Select the Mask layer. Now we can adjust the nodes.
04:27 In the Parameters panel, change the Feather parameter to 25.
04:33 Observe the feather effect is applied to the fire.
04:38 We will now animate the fire. Click on Turn on animate editing mode icon.
04:44 Go to 3rd frame. Add a keyframe in the Keyframes panel.
04:49 Adjust the nodes of the fire as shown.
04:56 Now go the 6th frame. In the Keyframes panel, Duplicate the zeroeth frame.
05:03 Next, we will loop this fire animation. So, right click on the Fire cut group layer.
05:10 Click on New layer, then on Other and on Time loop.
05:17 In the Parameters panel, change the Duration parameter to 12.
05:24 Tick on the checkbox of Only for Positive Duration.

Click on Play button to check the animation.

05:33 Next, let us animate the rocket. So, group all the layers.
05:39 Change the Group layer name to Rocket.
05:42 Go to zeroth frame. Move the rocket to the bottom of the canvas as shown.
05:48 Now, go to 100th frame. Move the rocket to the top of the canvas.
05:55 Now the rocket animation is done.
05:58 Let us add a background image now which I created in Inkscape.
06:03 I have saved this image in Documents folder.
06:06 Go to File. Click on Import.
06:11 Move the layer below the Rocket group layer.
06:15 Press Ctrl and S keys to save the file.
06:18 Lastly we will render the animation.

Go to File. Click on Render.

06:25 I will save the output in the Desktop.

Change the extension to avi. Target to ffmpeg.

06:34 Now click on Render.
06:37 We will now check our animation.

Go to Desktop. Right click on the output file and play our animation.

06:45 Our rocket animation looks like this.
06:48 With thi,s we have come to the end of this tutorial.

Let us summarize.

06:53 In this tutorial, we learnt to create Fire effect,
06:58 Cut out effect,

Change slope & offset parameters,

Feather effect.

07:02 We also learnt to do a rocket animation.
07:05 Here is an assignment for you- create a wood fire animation.
07:10 The wood image is provided to you in the Code files link.
07:14 Your completed assignment should look like this.
07:18 This video summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project.

Please download and watch it.

07:23 The Spoken Tutorial Project team conducts workshops and gives certificates on passing online tests.

For more details, please write to us.

07:32 Please post your timed queries in this forum.
07:35 Spoken Tutorial Project is funded by NMEICT, MHRD, Government of India.
