Today we where shown the principles of squash and stretch. Whatever is organic must squash with an impact, and as a result, it will stretch on recoil. This was best shown using a variety of different balls. The first i used was a rubber ball which i timed when i threw it along the floor. From the timings i created a short animation demonstrated the squash and stretch.
After this i created an animation for a basket ball, once again i bounced it and timed with a stop watch the amount of bounces, time etc.
This week has shown me the importance of squash and stretch. The best way to understand these principles is by creating these simple ball animations. I will use them as a demo in my final presentation.
