Overlapping action and followthrough

Below is an annimation of a moving platform with a pendulum hanging from it. Both objects practice slow in and slow out. As the rectangle accelerates to it's end point, the ball and string pendulum follows behind with a slight delay. The pendulum follows the rules of annimation regarding arcs demonstrated in the ball's movement. At the end of the rectangle's movement the pendulum follows in an overshoot and settle movement with a settling finish.

Bouncing Ball

In this project, I created a bouncing ball animation with 3 obstacles to change the speed and trajectory of the ball. The small ball is light in weight with medium bounce. Through the strategies of squash and stretch, the ball is portrayed in the above way.
