3D Ball Bouncing

Here is the 3D ball bouncing made with Maya.

Again the video file was too small for vimeo so I had to upload it with youtube.

For this project I simply used a polygon sphere, plane, and nurbs sphere(for the background dome)

I applied a little color and keyed the scale and the position to move the ball up and down. I also adjusted the y position curve in the graph editor for a more realistic ball movement.

I batch rendered with mental ray and compiled the images and added a title in ToonBoom.

2D Ball Bounce

Here is my 2D Ball Bounce made with ToonBoom.

Vimeo said the video file was too small so I had to upload it with YouTube.

For this I used ToonBoom and drew a ball and a line for the ground. I copied and pasted the ball and ground into 48ish frames and moved the ball for each frame and smashed it when it hit the ground. There might be a more effective way of keyframing the movement but I didn't know how so I did it the old school way.
