How I make my stick animations

At first I think of how I want to make the stick figure. Should I make it sit? Should I make it stand?
Then think to see where I want to have the figure at. After that I start by making the head of the figure. I adjust the size of it to show its closeness to the screen or how big it is. I continue with the body, arms, and legs which I usually use the line tool to make it.
There are options to change the properties of what your going to create bellow in the properties section. I use that to adjust the thickness of the line.
Then after that I have made my stick figure. Its a plain image but I can make it alive.
You can use motion tweening in the timeline to make the figure move. Which I will explain in the next tutorial.
