Using what we're learning with the pendulum and the flag, create a moving object that has something hanging from it. The moving object is the driving force, and the hanging object is reacting. The hanging object could be above or below the driving force.
Examples:
- An arm waving a flag.
- A basic floating rectangle with a pendulum attached.
- Green Goblin's hanglider with Spider-Man hanging from it.
- Someone riding a mechanical bull.
The purpose of this assignment is to help foster an understanding of overlapping action and drag. The main action could come to a stop on screen, fly off screen, hit something, etc. It doesn't matter how the action begins or ends, so long as there is some kind of beginning and some kind of ending. The action should not just come to a sudden stop. Any changes in speed and trajectory of the main object should influence the attached object.
I recommend keeping it simple so the focus can stay on animating.
What I will be looking for when grading:
- Volume control
- Are there two elements? Which element is the lead and which is the follower?
- Is there overlapping action and drag?
- Are there any technical problems, such as elements appearing or disappearing? Does the animation have a beginning and ending? Does the video last far longer than the animation itself?
