Making the Bouncing Ball

      THE PROCESS
      When making the bouncing ball it was actually a lot like the other process with the plain, staying in place bouncing ball. After making the ball and adding shine to it it was very simple to continue moving it and making a new frame every time it got into a new position. Making the timeline was different this time since we also had to make an introduction slide going into the animation. The slide proved to be very easy, what I had most problems with was when got to the end. Overall, I think it went decently well.
      WHAT I LEARNED
      During the making of this animation I learned how to use the 'fade' tool which allowed me to have the slides faded in before the animation started. Besides that I also learned how to make the shine of the ball follow the path of light that was on it.
      WHAT I WOULD DO DIFFERENTLY
      I messed up twice when doing this animation, the first part being not doing the beginning slides before making the timeline. After I made the timeline and tried to put the slides into the beginning it messed up some other parts of the animation which took me some time to fix. That and when I got near the end of the animation I realized I hadn't put an ending part when the ball would disappear or explode. Putting that in also took some time and messed up other parts of the animation.
