Bouncing Ball Animating Experience
In creating my animation, the hardest part of the whole process was getting used to how to properly use and navigate Pencil. I decided not to go with a solid colour ball (since my pen tool wasn't working) and I chose to instead use a picture of a tennis ball that I got off the internet. This created some problems, as I had a little bit of trouble figuring out how to paste the image in, and what size to make the image. Once I figured that out, and that you navigate the animation by clicking on the time line not the key bar, it was relatively easy to finish my animation.
Unfortunately, my laptop was unable to export the animation as a .mov file, so I was forced to use a low-quality conversion program to do that for me. However, it exported the .swf just fine, so if you want to take a look at it, you can find it here: http://thedukeofluke.weebly.com/uploads/1/2/7/6/12766114/mission_8.swf or below. I would rather that you clicked the link as the transparency of the ball's background didn't come out quite right in the finished product.
The easiest part of creating this animation would have to be the drawing of the outline. It was the fastest, and the most satisfying part to complete.
