Final Cut -multilayer & animation

Quick overview

Nice alpha channel, multi-layer image, all standard things that can be done in multilayer Photoshop image editing can be done here. Drop shadow, etc. can be key framed. Hundreds of filters to apply to anything.

What is the significance of key framing an effect? It is to set animation points, and then the software will handle the tweening. Saw demonstration of simple animation.

But cannot think yet of replacing Flash, even though can handle animation.

I should look around for others who have pushed animation capacity of FCP to see how far they can go in introductory animation issues. Any thoughts?
