title: Custom animation in Android
body: <p>I've written a custom <code>View</code>. Now I want to do a little custom animation when the user touches it.</p>
  
  <p>When I say custom, I mean I basically want to render each frame myself, and <strong>not</strong> use a "predefined" animation like described <a href="http://www.hascode.com/2010/09/playing-around-with-the-android-animation-framework/" rel="noreferrer">here</a>.</p>
  
  <p>What is the proper way of implementing this?</p>
