Bouncing Ball Animation

In today's Adobe lesson we animated bouncing balls. Especially the changing shape for the ball was important to make it look realistic.  

To visualize speed the shape of the ball would turn into an oval and squish together when it's touching the ground. 

First of all we had to create a cartoon bouncing ball going from one side to the other.

For the next task we had to create three balls in different sizes to make them fall down from above. 

We had to take in mind how a ball is bouncing when it is hitting the floor and how the mass of the ball is influencing the speed and bouncing of the falling ball.
