Bouncing Ball

 When thinking of what I wanted my ball to do I had no idea. With having free range it's hard to come up with an idea. Some people think that having complete creative freedom is better, but that's not always the case. Having a few guidelines can help tremendously!! It took me a few days to come up with a simple scene and I find that kind of sad, but it's fine. Sometimes simple is good. I had my ball from from the top of the screen, bounce a few times, fall through a trapdoor, appear at the top of the screen again, bounce off a platform then back onto the ground into another trapdoor. Simple enough, but figuring out the timing and spacing was a bit of a challenge. I also wanted the trap doors to open and close, but figuring out the timing for that and making a new layer for them was too much for my little beginner brain to handle lol but hopefully the more I learn in this class the better I'll be at figuring out something like that for future animations. Overall, I really liked this assignment and enjoyed seeing everyone's take on a simple "make a ball bounce and interact with something". I'm excited to see what everyone does with the next assignment.
