In the previous lesson, behaviors allowed you to create animation

procedurally—you applied a behavior that contained a set of instruc-

tions for making the layer animate. Setting keyframes is a way to

articulate an animation—that is, manually identify exactly what, when,

and how you want to animate.

The term keyframes, or key frames, originates from traditional hand-

animation techniques in which a senior artist would draw “key” poses

of a character and turn over those images to a junior artist, who would

draw the in-between frames to create smooth character animation from

one keyframe to the next.
