Opening Slide Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on “Rocket animation” using Synfig.
Learning Objectives (Slide) In this tutorial, we will learn to create
  • Fire effect
  • Cut out effect
  • Change slope & offset parameters and
  • Feather effect

We will also learn to do a rocket animation using all of the above.

System requirements
