Tools used in this tutorial:
Shape Tools: Several shapes were used in the making of this design, including the ellipse. Within the Options Bar, you can set the fill and stroke (outline).
Layer Styles: If you're looking to add effects to your layers, you'll likely want to use Layer Styles. Whether it's an outer glow, a few shadows, or a bevel to give it depth, the possibilities are endless!
Timeline: To create the animation, the Timeline was accessed (under the Window menu). My adding keyframes, you're able to set the starting and ending point for each object, and when played back (spacebar), you'll see the animation.
