Hi

You can use timeline to set different positions of this character to make it.
For example,
Frame 0 > X: 0/ Y: 0/ Z: 0
Frame 100 > X: 0/ Y: 500/ Z: 0

I managed to do that. Thanks but it looks very mechanical. How do i put in more motions? Will i need to use motion editor for that? Let us say that the character suddenly started flying and that she is surprised by her sudden upward fly movement. How do i show that she is flapping her hands and legs in disgust that she wants to come down. I mean in long shot how do i show that?

Also is it possible to show horizontal flying than vertical... like superman flying in the sky horizontally. It shud seem as if he is flying.. so i guess we will need a moving background?

This was done using the Motion Editor and a Rotoscope of the Video playing in the background. Done a long time ago, but it gives you a good idea of how the character looks blue screened on a video that was used for motion changes in the Motion Editor.
