MAKING THE ANIMATION

1. Open the Timeline Panel

2. Select Create Video Timeline (not Create Frame Animation).

3. A five second duration timeline will automatically open.

4. If the layer is not named, Layer 1 is the default name. Click on Layer 1 name to open the panel further.

5. Click the Stopwatch Icon next to the word Transform to set the first Keyframe. This will place a yellow triangle beneath the Timeline.

6. Move the Current Time Indicator to the right-side of the Timeline. (It has a blue top with a red line).

7. Move the rocket to the right side of the screen.

8. An automatic Keyframe will be set. Play the animation. The rocket should move smoothly from one side of the screen to the other.

I found this hard to do because there were features of photoshop that I've never used before and as it was my first time I made mistakes until I figured out what to do and move the rocket from one side of the screen to the other by using the video timeline. Using the timeline meant we had to set specific keyframes to make sure everything was done properly and on time. They were showed as being little yellow diamonds.
