## In this lesson

### Attach the picture (0:09)

Let's give it the reference first. Press slash, widen the panel, and focus the message box again. Now drop our rocket picture on it. The picture rides along with the request we're about to send.

### Ask for motion (0:23)

Now tell it what to do with the picture. Type: recreate this, then launch the rocket. The reference supplies the look; our words supply the action.

### Watch the launch (0:34)

Send it, and watch the rocket take shape. It says its plan: rebuild the scene, then launch. The whole picture arrives as vector layers, and it compares them with our reference. Then it rigs the rocket to one null, flickers the flame, and blasts off as the clouds rush past. When it's done, the launch plays.

### Compare the drawing (0:54)

Let's compare the drawing with our picture. Scroll back up to our message with Page Up. Press Escape, then space to pause, and zero for the start. Now click ref. On stage, the reference lies over the drawing, and they line up.
