Activity 4: Adding Squash and Stretch

T-ANIMCO-002-004

In this topic, you will learn to add squash and stretches to your bouncing ball which will add a lot of credibility to your animation. The stronger the squash and stretch, the more cartoony and rubbery your ball will look. A subtle squash and stretch will give the impression the ball is more solid, closer to a bowling ball than a basket ball.
