Script, Boards, and Reference for Basic Animation


For my action I’m planning on simulating a ball bounce off a table, but instead of a ball I’ll be using a plushie instead. Despite it’s blush body it should appear to bounce as effortlessly as a typical bouncy ball, making 2 full bounces before making a third bounce off the table, landing on the floor and coming to a cartoonish skidding halt as if it lost it’s bounciness. At present I can only think of just using my arm to hold the plush in place and plan to paint it out in photoshop later for each frame, but I’ll consider other ideas like string or some kind of pole if the opportunity presents itself. I’ll be using my iPhone, unless I can get access to a digital camera soon enough, and I plan on having it be a still sitting shot of a dining room table with enough view of the floor to see the plushie land. The software I plan on using is the Stop Motion Plus Studio app on my phone and Adobe Premier (unless Stop Motion Plus already builds it as a .MOV file).

And here's my physics reference:
