Today we have fun in Adobe Animate making a Bouncing Ball and a Crazy Pool Billards Table Animation.
We combine together Skills we have Learned in our Previous Lessons in regards to Motion Tweens, Using Layers, Drawing Cookie Cutter Objects, Gradient Fills, and Scale and Using Keyframes.
If you have done the previous Lessons in our course the Tutorial should all make sense, but if you are a Beginner you will need to follow the PDF Instructions and Video very very carefully.
The Finished Animation is saved as an Animated GIF File. This GIFs can then be used in Adobe Animations, Video Productions, PowerPoint Presentations, Word Docs, in Website Graphics, on Social Media, and in Games Programming Projects.
