Promote yourself!! Create a movie with at least one text object containing your name. Your name should be the focus of the animation and the text should be modified with tweens, masks, and filters (20 points). Demonstrate your ability to organize your objects with layers by naming them and using folders (5 points).

Also, you may want to consider using text as the mask instead of an object. Here is a series of short lessons that may help give you some ideas on text tweens, morphs, and masks in addition to those in your textbook.
