This video is not going to be a lesson, but it's going to be about explaining an exercise, I'd like
for you to open up the ball, exercise, start and find these two balls.
Here we have a beach ball and a bowling ball.
All right.
And what I would like for you to do is to animate both of these balls doing the same exact thing that
we just did, OK?
And what this exercise is about is understanding weight.
When we did the first one, we did it just with the generic ball and did a bounce.
And, you know, I did what I did.
But now we have two very specific balls.
One is very light.
And even though it's big, it's much lighter than the bowling ball.
The bowling ball is very heavy.
So what your task is for this exercise is to animate both of these balls coming off of the cliff just
like we did the other ball.
You can do them at the same time, or you can do them one after the other, whichever you'd like to
do.
And so you can make this as long as you want it to be and all that kind of a thing.
But yeah.
So go ahead and animate both of these balls falling off this cliff like we did the generic ball.
But the key here and what you have to think about is timing and spacing.
Right.
What ball is going to do?
What is this one going to fall quicker?
Is this one going to fall slower?
Is this one going up?
Is the bowling ball going to bounce?
Very much.
Is the beach ball going to bounce more than the bowling ball?
So you want to show, even though, you know, in 3-D, these are the exact same thing, there's nothing
special about either of those.
But what we have to do an animation is we have to give these things weight by using timing and spacing
and all of these other things.
We've been talking about squash and stretch and all that.
So you have all the knowledge now, but now you have to start practicing it and start thinking before
you animate and and make deliberate choices about where you're setting keyframes and how you're animating.
So take a take.
It's going to take more in the minute, takes some time and animate that.
And the next video, we're going to cover the animation of both of these.
All right.
Thanks for watching.
