After researching and looking at images of how a ball should behave when bouncing while moving forward, I created a photoshop file outlining the path I want the ball to take and key positions that the animation should follow. To make the ball's movement realistic, the ball's path will follow a parabolic arc while losing height and distance every time it bounces, as would a real ball.

Assignment 2: Motion Design Project - Flour Sack in Action The task of assignment 2 is to animate a flour sack that either walks or runs.

These two images will aid in creating an animated walking flour sack.
