Am I approaching this fold animation the correct way?

Hi guys,

 

I am using Flash CS6 on OSX 10.8.2. I am trying to create an animation of a box that is folded in half down the middle before opening up with a concertina movement. (I've attached an image that will hopefully be able to explain what I am trying to make a little better!)

This is how I have gone about trying to achieve this:

 

I have created two rectangle shapes each on a separate layers and converted them to movie symbols.

 

The top symbol has a nested animation which is a 3D rotation.

The 3D rotation centre point is set on the centre of the top edge of the symbol and rotates on the x-axis.

 

The bottom symbol has essentially the same nested animation however with the 3D rotation centre point set on the centre of the bottom edge.

 

The bottom symbol then has a motion tween (not nested) to move downwards as the nested animations play.

 

As the animation is playing though I am having a bit of a problem making everything line up correctly! I've tried few other ways of trying to achieve this (shape tween) but with no real luck. Am I approaching this the right way? If anybody had any feedback or advice I would really appreciate it! I'm trying to get the basic animation correct first before I make it more complicated!

 

Thanks in advance

 

Henry
