More Planning

I also created a little flash animation made of the key

frames, to get the feel of this motion

I drew some sketches following the reference footage I shot on

flash and saved it as a j-peg for planning.  This became 

very useful to pose the character accordingly 

to dig motion of the clip.

This give a close at the joints flexed 

within this pose.

I found this image to give an idea of the pose the 4th pose in the

is the one that fits my reference footage.

Using this reference footage I will attempt to replicate

this movement with the Moom character.

Bowling Ball 4th/ Final attempt

In this 5th and final attempt I think the timing is good and

I have gone back on the rotation and made it rotate slight

instead of what it was, it proves the less of it the better.

In this attempt the bounces are starting to a lot smooth

and more realistic and there is a slight change in the

rotation where I have alter so there is less. Still 

needs tweaking as it is a bit jumpy.

Bowling Ball 2nd/3rd attempt

In this 3rd attempt to make the bowling ball bounce the second

bounce looks better, but the rotation still needs tweaking as

it jumps quite a bit where more rotation

 to the bowling ball.

In this version its getting there, the second bounce is a

bit quick and the rotation needs changing 

as it jumps a bit inbetween. 

Bowling Ball Planning/ 1st attempt

This attempt show the drop which is  good start the other bounces

need to be tho, to give more impression of weight.

This chart I found on google shows the direction of the

 bounce the shear difference in weight

 I have to take in account.

This sketch I did is a plan that shows the 

weight and motion of the bounce 

so I have some to start from.

5th and Final attempt looped

After the previous version I mad a lot progress 

and tweaked to the max so this is my is 

final attempt of the shuttlecock bounce.
