Hmm, should I make an animation of a ball falling towards water, which stops to feel if the temperature is right. And because it's too cold, it decides to jump up again, pushing off from the water. Or a whole buch of balls falling down from different heights and angles, or, or. Well, the possibiliti...

Here is the improved version of my bouncing ball (Quicktime, DivX, 21 Kb). Now there is a logical reason why the ball doesn't happily bounce on; it gets stuck in something sticky. The Moho source is here.

Bounce. I like the directness of it, but IMHO it could use some improvements here and there. The ball not only changes shape, but also changes volume. I don't think that's right, is it? And at the end the ball comes to a sudden stop, while in the earlier part of your anim the ball seemed to be a no...

Re: Workshop I: Bouncing Ball

1. Hand scale and rotate the ball (marble) at the desired keyframes and inbetweens and let Moho interpolate portions of the animation I don't think that will work on seperate points, because in my experience scaling and rotating shapes will distort your ball shape in the inbetweens. And if you use ...

Here is my attempt (441 Kb). Ball bounces less and less until it stops (while the cloulds are moving by). There's a zipped Moho file as well, here . I did the bouncing of the ball this way (keyframes refer to the Point Motion and Selected Point motion channels): 1) daw a round ball (circle) 2) put ...

I think I'll buy Bluth's "Art of Storyboard" and Scott McCloud's "Understanding Comics", because I'm both new to storyboarding and visual communication. Both are reasonably priced. ______ BTW I personally think that the "Illusion of Life" is the best book to combine (se...

You only need a 6 x 9 size tablet really. And I've seen them for around $60. You can still trace fairly well. Well, the Graphire3 XL has an active surface of 209 x 151 mm (8.2 x 5.9 inches), and costs 187.38 euros, incl. VAT and shipping costs at Wacomshop.nl , which is one of the cheapest supplier...

Or you can just create strange animations, like this SWF, which isn't even weird.

The only image format that will animate is a GIF Not completely true, there is an animated version of PNG as well, MNG or JNG, see: http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/png-sitemap.html#animation The only problem is that neither MNG nor JNG are widely supported. None of my browsers does, so I had to use a...

I guess this all means you cannot turn hand drawn line art into outlined vector drawings using an autotracer, at least not the way I want it. I want the outlines to replace the bitmap lines, not to enclose them, like in the picture above. Even inkscape's Potrace drew outlines around the bitmap lines...

Oh, I think I understand. A set of points can have more than one outline and fill. I didn't know that.

Doesn't Delineate only create SVG files?

I've tried your solution and ended up with this:

Not what I want, alas.
