Heavy ball- This one is looking really close! I can't really see the beginning of the animation because it's cut off when I play it, I'll have to see it when I see you next.
Medium ball- after it bounces, it goes up at a good speed, then as it comes down it speeds up a ton. This feels more like a bowling ball or a really flat basketball. Give it a few more bounces and maybe let it lose 30% of it's height with each bounce. You have it losing 80
light ball- You've got the right idea by making the ball not lose a ton of height with each bounce. That is looking good. Each bounce goes up and down really fast though, and it seems like the translate y curve is too linear in the graph editor. Give the bounces some hang time up in the air before they change direction and come back down. Be careful on the last part too, time it so that it doesn't look like it's vibrating so much.
Thanks Allen! Thanks for the feedback, I will fix these up. The reference I was looking at for the basketball was really unbouncy, so I will find a better one that is more of a generic bounce. Happy animating!
Hey Paige!

You're awesome!
