Today I worked on my next stop motion task. I found the balloon exercise to be quite challenging, but after multiple attempts I can see improvements in my work. As a warm up, I chose to do the heavy object first.
I did this one a few times as it was quite a short animation to make. It had to fall fast and not bounce too much, as the weight of the ball stopped it from doing so.
From here I moved onto making the balloon.
The above video is of my second attempt. I found it difficult to get the swaying motion and the correct speed for the movement of the balloon. I think the later swings are a bit too fast for a balloon movement, however you could also consider the fact there might have been a breeze. I'm quite happy with the way it bounces once it hits the ground.
I feel like I was able to achieve better swings with the balloon in my third try, spacing the frames closer together at each direction change. I think the whole thing could be slower though, to get a real feel for the object I'm meant to be portraying. The bouncing at the end might be over exaggerated.
