]]> A clock ticking involves fluid, repetitive motion. Animate the hands of the clock moving in precise increments. The ticking should be consistent and timed well, with the second hand moving smoothly, while the minute and hour hands shift gradually. The background should remain static, but slight lighting changes can enhance the passing of time. Adding an audible “tick-tock” sound effect can also enhance the animation.

]]> Start by keyframing the movement of the clock’s hands moving around the dial in a smooth motion. Use small in-between keyframes to show the hands winding up to the desired time. Add secondary actions like the winding mechanism turning, or gears shifting. The ticking sound and a subtle sound effect can accompany the movement to make the animation feel more realistic.

As the balloon rises, change its appearance slightly by adjusting the way light interacts with it, making it glow brighter as it gets higher. Add slight stretches to the balloon as it moves with the wind.

]]> Start by defining the height and force of the bounce. The ball’s squashed shape upon hitting the ground will emphasize the impact. The timing of the bounce should be exaggerated, with the ball’s rise and fall adjusting based on the type of surface it’s hitting. Add slight secondary movements, like the ball shaking or spinning. As the ball loses momentum, it should bounce with decreasing height.

]]> A tornado animation involves swirling, unpredictable motion. Start by keyframing the tornado’s center and then adjust the funnel shape and rotation. Use multiple layers to show debris, clouds, and wind swirling around the core. The tornado should continuously rotate, getting narrower as it moves upward. Secondary effects, like flying debris or dust clouds, will enhance the chaos of the scene.
