This week we started animating, we were tasked with animating three balls of different weights bouncing.

I started by referencing different YouTube videos of people dropping balls and them bouncing, after studying my references I started to animate. The three balls I chose were a bowling ball, a tennis ball and a ping pong ball. I chose these balls as they are very different in weight and size.

Bowling ball:

Tennis Ball:

Ping pong ball:

I am very happy with these animations, I think it is easy to see the different weights and the animation turned out very smooth. However I think the ping pong  ball looks off as the bounce stops to fast at the end.
