This Team CIA slogan animation was created using Paint Shop Pro 6 and the Animation Shop.  I created 6 separate pictures on Paint Shop Pro 6 and then created an animation using the Animation Shop.  Below is how I animated it.

Although only one inspirational quote was needed, I animated two.  These were created in the same process explained in the above animation.  The transition types used were in this order: 
For the animation on the left-
double split, fade, iris wipe, split, wedge wipe, zoom, and spin
all these transitions were about 0.8 seconds long, with 10 frames per second
For the animation on the right-
fade, curtains, slat spin, slats, zoom, spin
all these transitions were about 0.9 seconds long, with 10 frames per second

 

This animation is for the winter and spring track teams at Perkiomen Valley.  It was made using the same process as the previous two.  Transitions used are iris wipe, luminance wipe, slash wipe, star wipe, and zoom.  All animations were about 0.9 seconds in length, with 10 frames per second.

 

This is my micro button animation, which others can put on their website and hyperlink it to mine.  This consists of only four slides, with three transitions.  The transitions are hue wipe, luminance wipe, then iris wipe.  Each transition lasts about 1.1 seconds, with 10 frames per second.
