The Bouncing Ball.Timing and Spacing:
The Bouncing Ball is a good example of timing and spacing. The impacts- where the ball is hitting the ground- that’s the timing of the action.
By Chevonnese Chevers Whyte
The Bouncing Ball.And spacing: the ball overlaps itself when its at the slow part of its arc, but when it drops fast, it’s spaced further apart. That’s the Spacing.
By Chevonnese Chevers Whyte
Bouncing BallThe two basic elements of animation.
By Chevonnese Chevers Whyte
Squash and StretchThe Bouncing ball is often used to show animation ‘squash and stretch’- that is , the ball elongates as it falls, flattens on impact with the ground and then returns to its normal shape in the slower part of the arc.

By Chevonnese Chevers Whyte
Pencil TestA movie made from the original rough pencil drawings. Pencil tests are made so that animators can see what their animation looks like in motion before the drawings get sent off to be inked and painted and eventually shown in the finished movie.
