Hello,

I have a beginner question. What frame sequences are required for a buildup animation?

I've looked at some existing buildings and they all have 2 sets of frames. One in full color
and another in 1 or 2 color. What is the purpose of the second set?

Thanks.

You're talking about SHP builder. The second batch of frames in SHP builder are the shadow frames. You can only edit the shadow colour on them. The grey images are just added as reference to see what the shadows are from.

You're probably better off reading the FAQs about SHP builder on PPMSite.com, where the tool comes from.
