It's alive
Create a simplified illustration of any simple object (no balls). Create a series of very short animations that demonstrate the following principles:
- The Hold
- Ease in and Ease out
- Anticipation and Follow through
- Weighted Movement
- Emphasis or Exaggeration

- You can complete five separate animations or overlap them into three.
