REPEATED ACTIONS

I have a character who is dropping seeds into a bucket, one at a time. The seed drops from the hand into the bucket, then I want another to appear in the hand and do the same...repeating...but I can't get the seed layer to jump start from the original spot without moving "backwards"...how can I do this?

Thanks!

There needs to be an "all the way into the bucket" keyframe exactly one frame prior to your "back in the hand again" keyframe. This way the motion returning back will not be visible. Alternatively you could make the seeds invisible for a few frames using layer visibility or layer alpha, but I think my suggestion is simpler.
