Defenititions

Definition: "Tween" is actually short for "in-between", and refers to the creation of successive frames of animation between key frames. In computer animation, the term is most commonly used for Flash's "shape tweening" and "motion tweening" processes, where the user can define two key frames and Flash will automatically create the in-between frames, either morphing one shape into another over a set period of time or else moving a shape or shapes from point A to point B over a set period of time. 3D animation programs also have their own method of "tweening". Also Known As: in-between

Definition: A Motion Tweens is form of animation that enables you move an object around and change it's properties.

Definition: An animation key frame is a single still image in an animated sequence that occurs at an important point in that sequence; key frames are defined throughout an animated sequence, in order to define pivotal points of motion before the frames in between are drawn or otherwise created to "tween" the motion between the two key frames. One example of key frames could be an animation of a swinging baseball bat; the bat at rest would be one key frame, and the bat at the end of of its swing would be another. All other frames would be "tweened" frames.
