Here's a second Bouncing Ball Test I did last night. As I keep doing these simple tests, the more I fall in love with animation. I love it! Can Animation Mentor start already? :) I'm also starting to understand Maya's Graph Editor a bit more and my time with Maya has been a lot more enjoyable these last few days. I still got some minor tweaks to work on tonight but for the most part I'm really happy with it. I'll post a video update later tonight along with a snapshot of my translate Y curves for everyone to see.
Hey, man! You should put a texture on the ball, like the checker pattern or even a line to see how it rolls. It looks like so far you are headed in the right direction. Keep up the great work, brotha. :)
ReplyDeleteBtw, here's a great guide to bouncing ball animation.
