Also, Science backs it up, because it is simply Physics.

Though, since animation is a visual art that needs to impress the eyes of the audience, everything will need a bit of ๐ธ๐‘‹๐ด๐บ๐บ๐ธ๐‘…๐ด๐‘‡๐‘–๐‘‚๐‘.

The Bouncing Ball exercise is the best way to learn the SQUASH & STRETCH Animation principle!

 

For some instances, ๐’๐๐”๐€๐’๐‡ & ๐’๐“๐‘๐„๐“๐‚๐‡ will be visually tangible, but most of the time, it has to be subtle otherwise you will get some hilarious images such as the meme from Nฬฒaฬฒrฬฒuฬฒtฬฒoฬฒ ฬฒvฬฒsฬฒ ฬฒPฬฒaฬฒiฬฒnฬฒ ๐Ÿ˜‚

And this topic needs to be talked because it made history!

 

Also, let’s keep in mind that ๐ธ๐‘‹๐ด๐บ๐บ๐ธ๐‘…๐ด๐‘‡๐‘–๐‘‚๐‘ is another one of the 12 principles –-my favorite one-– but you will notice very quickly that they are all in one and one for all (shout out to MHA!).

 

Basically, you probably already observed all 12 of them without even realizing it.

 

But hey, this is for later. Let’s keep the focus on ๐’๐๐”๐€๐’๐‡ & ๐’๐“๐‘๐„๐“๐‚๐‡!

 

โ–บ What is “SQUASH & STRETCH” exactly?

 

๐’๐๐”๐€๐’๐‡ & ๐’๐“๐‘๐„๐“๐‚๐‡ is the phenomenon you can easily observe from a water ball or from an air balloon that you fill up with water.

 

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿพ This is the ๐’๐๐”๐€๐’๐‡:

When you let the balloon hit the floor, its shape gets flatter and horizontally expands on its sides.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿพ This is the ๐’๐“๐‘๐„๐“๐‚๐‡:

When you pick it up from the top, its shape becomes vertically elongated and slimmer.

 

You can also easily observe the phenomenon when you let that ball fall on the ground.

 

Believe it or not, this also applies to any kind of body that exists in our universe.

Hope the animation principle ๐’๐๐”๐€๐’๐‡ & ๐’๐“๐‘๐„๐“๐‚๐‡ is now clear and well printed in your minds.

 

Next, we are going to see some scientific facts about ๐’๐๐”๐€๐’๐‡ & ๐’๐“๐‘๐„๐“๐‚๐‡.
