Week 12: Part 7

In part 7, I have successfully learnt how to animate a basic bouncing ball.

In this part, I need to select Translate Y in the graph editor and modify the graph by holding down the middle mouse wheel.

The ball needs to move in constant velocity. So i delete the middle keyframe for Translate X.

By freeing tangents, I am able to stretch the lines on the graph to give it a nice and smooth graph.

This is the result of freeing tangents.

     
This is the video of the bouncing ball.


Reflection:
This video helps me a lot. It teaches me the usage of graph editor. Next time, I don't have to animate them in different view panels one by one; i can use this graph editor to determine how my ball wants to move.
