You can then move your object in the direction you want it go by just click and drag, this will create a motion path. If you want to add more than one object to your motion tween you must add a new layer. Every object should have its own layers. To add a color effect to your motion tween you must select the object you want to add the effect to. You then go to your side panels and select color effect, style alpha. You must have the playhead (found on the timeline) on the frame you would like the effect to start from. If your playhead is in the right frame then you choose the Alpha percentage you want your object to look like at the beginning. After you do that you need to change the playhead to another frame and select color effect, style alpha and choose a different Alpha percentage. Your timeline will have a few little black dots or little diamonds which are called keyframes. These keyframes indicate a change in your movie, such as the start and end of an animation or sound.
