THE PROCESS OF MAKING AN ANIMATION
Is surprisingly easy considering what need to be done. The first step into making an animation, I was making a ball bouncing up and down, is to start with a shape of whatever it is you want to animate. So I started off by making a background, which was pretty simple, just a sky blue background and a green rectangle to act as grass. The next part was just as simple, in which I made colored circle and added a gradient to it for lighting. Next I created multiple layers in which I made many different versions of the ball (same color and gradient just in a different place for each layer) go lower, till in eventually hit the ground. Now to make it into frames. The process of making frames is the exact same of making layers. Using the time line this part was very easy and I was satisfied with the results I got.
WHAT I LEARNED
Is very simple and not as complicated as most people would actually think. I learned how to ad gradients, make different layers, use the timeline to create different frames, and basically create an animation using photoshop. It was very fun and simple process, one I hope to do again in the future.
WHAT I WOULD DO DIFFERENT NEXT TIME
Is add some more background, maybe some clouds here and there. Also put more shading onto the ball, definitely use a different color this time around. Last, I would make the ball smaller and instead of having it just go up and down I might make it bounce to the left or right.
