Robot animation on Adobe Animate

 On the Adobe Animate I created a new file (standard 640 x 480) and the platform type to HTML5 then created the file. After which I had done that  checked under windows to see if my properties, timeline, tools and library where all active then (preferably) I check on web for robot ideas for my project, before that I clicked on Insert- new symbol and typed the name as robot- then type as -movie clip then ok this created a new layer timeline called robot.


So I to start with my robot, under timeline I clicked the plus sign to create a new layer for the robot head I named mine face, 

then picked the rectangle primitive tool for the head and used paint bucket tool to put in my desired colour, for the ears, mouth and eye I tried drawing them on the face using the shape tool and pen tool but they kept going behind the face so I drew them separately then used my sub selection tool

 to adjust my points, and anchors. click and dragged the eyes and mouth to the face then right clicked  and distribute to layer this kept the features placed on the face and new layers formed( name the layer as organ face) I used my pen tool and  ruler guide  under view to draw my ears and antenna.
For the body, created new layer called it body the deselected the face and then used the shape tool ands pen tool to draw the desired body and added my colour after which I created another layer  for arms and legs and drew out my hands and legs for the robot. click and drag the face above the body then arms above the legs under the body so they can be in accordance.


For the animation edits clicked shift then selected all my layers then dragged them to the 10th frame then clicked insert- timeline- keyframe  and I repeated that and dragged to the 19th frame then insert- timeline-frame. I played around by dragging the play back pin to each keyframe then adding edits and adjustment  to each frames creatively making effects patterns of my choice.
Clicked back on screen one at the top which took me back to the first layer then clicked on library and clicked and dragged the robot to the page then used free transform tool to adjust to size( modify- transform- free transform) 

then properties- publish settings- more settings then I deselected the export document as texture then clicked ok then control- test to see my results.
