The Bouncing Ball

When I finish an animation, I have to remember to save it not only as an animation-ish file, but also as a .mov. Another update is that I have organized my USB so that all of the stuff from photoshop has gone into a file that says 'TERM 1'. Its wayy easier to find stuff now, and when i start to get loads for files, it will definetly save time. So this is the bouncing ball. I just followed the link on Blackboard, and at first I thought it was gonna be really really hard, but it wasnt as hard as I thought it would be. Basically the main things that I had to concentrate on was that when the ball was just about to hit the ground, it would be a portrait oval, but when it was on the ground, it was a landscape oval. So the ovals were one after another going, portrait, landscape, portrait, then normal again. It was pretty fun doing this the first time cause I was so amazed at the finished product. Another thing that I had to focus on was how to make the ball appear to move faster and/or slower. I did this by placing the ball different lengths apart. At the start when it is moving quickly, the ball would be closer together than when it is moving slowly. I forgot to save it as a .mov, so I will post the bouncing ball later!
