The first clip features another set of watercolor keyframes, and a prescribed zoom animation. The steps for this animation were exactly the same as in the previous tutorial, with the only difference being parenting the keyframe composition to a scale null object instead of a position one.

The second clip involves another set of watercolor keyframes (a fish jumping). However, the sketchbook background was simply parented to the menu open scale (with the final box dimensions deleted) and the hook and work image parented to the alternate menu open scale. The fish jumping sequence was added at the end.

This last composition used the vertical null object, as well as the button push. The image of the snail’s head was parented to the button scale null object, and was timed for when the goldfish reached it. The original animation sequence from the first video was used and parented to the vertical null object. I had a little trouble with the fish moving offscreen, as I cannot figure out what object or composition is not moving and preventing the fish from reaching the end of the frame.
