Abstract

Digital learning has witnessed the growing demand for the animation element embedded through the education spaces. Learning animation can be enjoyable for novice users, however, the novice could portray the 2D animation as strenuous and demanding. To address this issue, the study aimed to design a user-friendly platform for beginners, integrating step-by-step tutorials tailored to the Adobe Animate interface and tools. This study focuses on the development of an interactive application to enhance the learning experience for basic 2D animation using Adobe Animate. The project employs the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) model to draft the concept, design the storyboard, and assemble the materials into an interactive application. Key features of the application comprise understanding animation, scripting, and drawing basic object techniques that allow users to practice and refine them within the tool’s environment. The study also involves testing the application among novice learners to ensure its relevance and effectiveness. The results from the System Usability Scale (SUS) assessment indicated that the use of an interactive ‘Fun with Shapes’ application is a marginally usable platform, achieving an ‘Ok’ rating with a score of 68. Future enhancements could include tutorials on motion tweening and scripting for interactive buttons, expanding the application’s instructional capabilities.
