This week’s exercise was to animate a bouncing ball with either a tail or something similar attached to practise follow through.
First I drew a dinosaur with a worryingly floppy neck,
Then I animated a bouncing head simply because I wanted to make an attempt at working out how the hair would move. It turned out a lot creepier than I anticipated…
Upon reflectionI definitely needed to add more exaggeration to both, like squashing them when they hit the floor and stretching them when they rise up. However I’m really happy with how the tail and the hair moves on each of them.
