 Digital Web Magazine - Adobe LiveMotion 1
Adobe has introduced LiveMotion 1, a web animation tool that produces SWF format (Flash) movies and offers an authoring environment similar to After Effects.
LiveMotion offers plenty of good features and the familiar Adobe interface, but there are some limitations that are important to consider if you're a newcomer to web animation.
I think LiveMotion 1 is a great start, and with the current $99 special they have running for owners of other Adobe or Macromedia programs, it's an inexpensive way to get introduced to vector-based web animation, if you haven't tried it before.

 creativepro.com - The Creative Toolbox: LiveMotion Makes Its Move on Flash
According to Adobe, at the time the LiveMotion feature set was defined, the SVG language was not yet ready to handle the kind of dynamic elements LiveMotion generates.
I think Adobe and its customers would benefit from a consistent user interface across the company's product line, but it's important to keep in mind that this is a groundbreaking new application, and LiveMotion's approach certainly has its advantages over the sometimes-convoluted Flash.
LiveMotion is a good choice for those who simply need to create animations, but it has a long way to go before it catches up to Flash 4's (soon 5) feature set and extensive scripting abilities.

 Mac OS Journal - August 2000
Upon word that Adobe was releasing a new application named LiveMotion, I performed the ritualistic twitching, shaking and sweating.
From the Adobe LiveMotion native file format (.liv) you can export you work in a variety of formats - gif, jpeg, psd, png, or swf (the Shockwave format files you read with the Flash plug-in from Macromedia).
LiveMotion allows you to select any combination of creative effects - including textures, opacity, gradients, fills, animation, sound, and interactivity - and save them as a "Style" to be applied to other objects.

LiveMotion also embeds a copy of the placed artwork in the.LIV file so that the source file is never accessed.
Whereas LiveMotion templates can contain any amount of animation and scripting and can be cropped to fit content, Dreamweaver Flash objects are limited to text and buttons, and there's no way to update all related files by editing a single template.
LiveMotion also enables multiple states on each clip — which is especially useful for animated rollovers — and allows designers to view clip contents by scrubbing the timeline with a modifier key.

 CNN - Adobe unveils LiveMotion Web animation tool - February 11, 2000
LiveMotion, the "Flash-killer" application long rumored to be in the works at Adobe, features an interface that is almost identical to Adobe ImageStyler, a Web tool for business graphics that has also gained some fans among professional Web designers.
Via LiveMotion's timeline window, you can choose which attributes of an object to animate, then alter the object's attributes as you move an animation slider across the timeline.
Though Adobe has long been considered a critic of Macromedia's Flash technology -- it is a driving force behind Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG), an alternative file format for vector graphics on the Web -- the company's attitude toward Flash has subtly shifted at Seybold.

 ActiveWin: Adobe LiveMotion - Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Indeed LiveMotion is the first Adobe software to use a basic toolbar (with only open/save/copy/paste/cut commands) and to display icons in front of the menu's commands.
LiveMotion doesn't depart from the rule as it offers a 3d palette that will allow you to switch each drawn object into 3d forms the way you want by changing the 3d settings such as the depth, lighting, softening.
But that's not all as you can also choose the 3d effect appearance that'll be applied such as ripple, emboss, cutout, print and bevel along with the rotation degree for the light effect (that is to say you can choose where should be the dark and the light part of the 3d figure).

LiveMotion 1.0.2 features faster performance, improved sound support, better Import and Export capabilities, more efficient SWF compression, tighter integration between Illustrator and Photoshop, and updates to the object-based Timeline.
Adobe Photoshop has been and will be a stronghold in print and web design, Illustrator too is a tough one to beat but has real competition from Freehand and CorelDraw (in fact I find coreldraw extremely flexible and easy to use).
As an avid user of Adobe products, I would have to say Livemotion is a great tool that is more or less directed at the artistic elements of swfs.
