Exploration 2

For Exploration 2, we are creating a bouncing ball through tradition animation. All together there will be a total of six.
1. Bounce Cycle
2. Bounce Cycle with Squash and Stretch
3. Parabolic Bounce
4. Parabolic Bounce Light
5. Parabolic Bounce Heavy
6. Parabolic Bounce 3D

Materials:
1. Black/Red/Blue Pencil
2. Punched Animation Paper
3. Light Table

First Animation which is the Bounce Cycle is just a bouncing ball going up and down with ease in and ease out.
Second Animation which is the Bounce Cycle with Squash and Stretch is the same as the first one except as each time the ball hits the ground and jumps back up it squishes when hitting the ground then stretches out giving the effect of a dramatic animation.
Third Animation which is Parabolic Bounce is a ball entering on one side of the frame, bounces three times and exits on the other side. This animation will also have squash and stretch.
Fourth Animation which is Parabolic Bounce Light is the same as the Parabolic Bounce except it will be bouncier and jump higher with squash and stretch.
Fifth Animation which is Parabolic Bounce Heavy is the same as Parabolic Bounce and Parabolic Bounce Light except it will have a heavy effect. It will drop, bounce once then roll as if it's like a bowling ball also with squash and stretch.
Sixth and Last Animation which is the Parabolic Bounce 3D. The ball will be appear through the screen. It will get smaller then gradually bounce towards you getting larger with squash and stretch.

I really enjoyed creating these traditional Animations because of the fact I created them completely through hand drawings. It was very time consuming and took a lot of patience but I had fun doing it. I thought this assignment was going to be horrible and really difficult to do but it wasn't at all. I also had no trouble doing any of it.
