@pwsjunior Well I listed the programs- basically I made all the shapes in Powerpoint and grouped them together, and made a new frame for every movement I made. When I was done with animation (the majority of the work mind you) I went through the project again and took a screencap (printscreen) of each frame, pasting it back into the project and saving it in another folder. I take all the frames into Windows Movie Maker, sync it to sound, crash the program a LOT, and render the final product.
