Bouncing ball exercise (1994)
Bouncing ball
On the first day in the Bachelor of Visual Arts in Animation degree, we jumped in the deep end with a "bouncing ball" loop. I had the good luck of having my first attempt tested. The motion was too mechanical to begin with and the timing was improved (as seen above) by dropping the 2nd and 4th frames from the sequence.
Frames
Below are the frames used to produce the bouncing ball. Frames 2 and 4 are omitted from the final animation to improve timing.
