What is a MovieClip()..
MovieClip() is just like a SPRITE in swish. You put all your animations
in a single object. When you make a simple animation its hard for you to
move you animation to a specific place, so the solution is to make a MovieClip()
which will contain animation, and you can easily move it on any space.


Making a MovieClip()
I will make movieClip(), which will be easy for you to understand..
Follow the steps..

1. Draw a rectangle. (you can make any object circle or rectangle)..
2. Select it and convert it to MovieClip by pressing F8 or goto
menu Insert and select Covert to Symbol, and from that box
click on option Movie Clip
