Animation Project 1- Oddish

    

 For our class assignment, we had to do the old bouncing ball exercise. We had to have the object interact with an object and I thought what better than a poke ball. 

I imagine that pokeballs are surprising heavy items, not very bouncy. I imitated a bouncing baseball thrown  downwards with a bit of force.

   I had done  a few practices before creating the final product. Im new to animation and to Harmony so I definitely needed to get familiar with the program. After watching a few bouncing ball videos on you tube, practicing a few different types of bounces, I started the animation process.

    I made sure to space the ball farther apart when I want it to go fast, squashing and stretching even though its a solid object, I need some slight exaggeration to make it look good.  and of course the frames towards the end are close together, about one onto of the other on the different frames. 

     I still have a lot to learn on timing as I do feel it still goes a bit too fast.
