THE KEY animation exercise: THE BOUNCING BALL
Channel: Jean-Denis Haas
Date: 2018-05-11

How to animate a bouncing ball and understanding the basic principles of animation related to it is so important! Before moving on to more complex human and creature type of work, I want to remind beginning animators to not rush through bouncing ball assignments. It's the building block of your animation education and even when working on more complex work you will always refer back to it. It's the foundation of your understanding of timing and spacing and conveying weight. And in this clip you'll see how you can beyond the assignment and add personality and character.

And here's the link to Tomas Jech's "Ballbounce" clip:
