Bouncing Balls Final Version

After receiving some feedback from Penny Holton, I realized that bigger changes to the animation was necessary. The ball simply bounces too much for a tennis ball. But changing the way it bounces in some point of the animation, will drastically change how the ball will continue to bounce the rest of the animation so I had to delete any animation that was made after the point I needed to edit.

Through the process leading to the final version I deleted my animation 1-3 times before I came up with a result that seemed correct

Here is an example of what I mean:




The ball simply bounces too far out from the wall and hits the bowling ball one last time and I decided I'm not buying that so I scraped the animation and edited this.








Now the ball hits the ground earlier and settles down much quicker which I think seems much more realistic.










After doing these adjustments I feel like I can wrap this one up. Of course there is still room for more improvement. It always is with animation but now I feel like I can put this animation aside and move on.
