TIP: Animate the change between character poses, photos, or other objects

I've seen a few posts asking the same question: Is it possible to get a nicer transition when changing between a character's poses? How about when changing between different states of an image? 

The answer: Yes!

If you want an animation (for example, a fade) between two versions of an object at a certain point on the timeline, insert the versions as two separate objects. Then have one version animate out as the other animates in. 

If you want an animation when changing between states of the same object, well, that takes a bit more work. You can't add animations to states of the main object. However, you can add animations to any object pasted or inserted into the state of another object.
