Post 1

For the first week of Animation, we were given a pretty simple task of animating a ball bounce, or at least to just give it a go. To help with this, we were given a number of different types of balls to record how they bounced on different surfaces, how long they bounced and how many times before they stopped. The video shows included in this post shows the reference footage we recorded to help with the animation.



With this information I went into Maya and created a basic first attempt. The picture shows the Translate Y line for the ball bounce I did, and as you can tell its quiet simple and bland. The animation isn’t actually completed because I just went to a different animation from this, I used this just as a test for the week.
