Flash Animation 13: Creating a Simple Preloader

Now click on your second frame on your movie clip's timeline, right-click to insert a keyframe, and then open the Actions for this frame. We're going to insert a very simple "goto" command, as we did in this lesson; this will tell the movie to go to our first main scene and start to play the animation. In my case the goto command reads:

gotoAndPlay ("Scene 1", 1) ;

So my movie knows that when the file has completed loading, it should go to the first frame in Scene 1 and begin to play.
