Andy Menter Exercise 2

Looking at it now, it kinda looks more like a jumping ball than a bouncing ball…

Ian Chaffardet Exercise 2

Finally!!!
The bouncing part is getting easier, I think I didn't face any issue until I started animating the tail, that part was a nightmare... I just realized that both of my exercises so far are actually a jumping/bouncing animation and not just bouncing. I made a simple bouncing ball just to be sure I was able to do it hahaha.
I guess, I'll post it on the Facebook group,

Daniel Moreno - Exercise 2

Hey guys, this is my second animation for the group, lots of work with this one and I had to remind myself that sometimes a fresh start on a scene can make wonders instead of trying to fix an irritating one.

Karl Ryan - Exercise 2

Ball bouncing across screen.
So here is my effort for a ball bouncing across screen.  Nice to dust off the Wacom tablet and get back into animation.  I tried to make the ball feel like a foot (soccer) ball  as much as possible.

Johanna Gan - Exercise 2

Since I haven't really animated much in the past few years, I have to learn all this stuff over again!

I pack my video with progress clips so vimeo recognizes it as a video to upload.  With that said, the red ball is my final.  This exercise didn't take too long at first, but the more I tweaked it the more ridiculous it became and the more time I spent on it.  My big problem was with the arc of the first full bounce. It just kept appearing really floaty or evenly timed and it bugged me.  Eventually, I just said I'm done with the exercise, and this is what I ended up with.  Like my previous exercise, the frame numbers indicate new drawings. 

The progression:
Final - Red ball
Initial planning - shows the arc path and my timing charts I didn't follow in the end.
Initial planning #2 - minus the arc path for bounce clarity
Inked - added a more prominent brush stroke for the ball rather than pencil
Playing with arc - this one the ball is filled in with white
... spared you all the other tweaking videos...
Final again - Red ball (same as beginning)
