What do layers do in animation?

Working with layers in animation lets you composite animation scenes in a way that doesn’t require fitting everything together perfectly in each frame. Layers give you more freedom in editing and give you a way to keep objects from merging on one layer when you need them to be separate in others.

How do you resize layers?

In the Layers panel, select one or more layers that contain images or objects you want to resize. Choose Edit > Free Transform. A transform border appears around all the content on the selected layers. Hold the Shift key to avoid distorting the content, and drag the corners or edges until it is the desired size.

What is the difference between a layer and a frame in animation?

Both the Layers and Frames palettes are in the same palette group. But instead of frames having pointers to one set of layers (as in ImageReady), each frame has its own layer stack. That’s the main difference between the two programs and how they handle layers and frames.

What does a blending mode do?
