ok, after understanding the fundamentals of the a bouncy ball i can move on to a ball with a tail.

For this i need to gather some reasearch via,

- Images

- Video footage

- Drawings

- Experimentation

(1) A SECOND TEST WITH IMPROVEMENTS!!!

(2) A final test

Using my guides i gain from my video footage, this is my first test

this image is my drawing imported into toomboom. Following my guide lines i am drawing my circles to induct my ball in the animation

After looking at my video experiment again i conducted a drawing of the bounce path of my tennis ball.

Tested the theory in the diagram

While doing some research about bouncing ball animations i found a web site called idleworm.com

its a really kl blog website where i found tutorials about bouncing ball animation.

the link to the site is here : http://www.idleworm.com/how/anm/01b/bball.shtml

however i wanted to do a quick test of this thoery in Toomboom to gain more understanding of how i 'could' approach my project
