- intro / thesis statement
- 4th down at half time rule- a rule that states for falling motion the break down drawing is a fourth of the distance from the apex
- How the law is important, and why it’s important to animations and maintaining their “realism”
2. Body paragraph 1-
- Wile e coyote animation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jL_yeEog6Wo
- The law is violated here because the time held at apex compared to the overall drop makes it clear that the law is not being considered
- Purpose: was this the result of bad animating or to cause comedic effect?
3. Body paragraph 2-
- Tom and jerry animation :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoRKIcuS_R4
- The law is violated here because tom does not speed up as he gets closer to the ground, but rather falls in a more uniform motion
- Purpose: was this the result of bad animating or to cause comedic effect?
4. Body paragraph 3-
- Bugs bunny animation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGvgNoTIEGQ
- The law is violated here because bugs bunny and the other character are able to basically freeze right before they impact the ground, violating the fourth down at half time rule
- Purpose: was this the result of bad animating or to cause comedic effect?
5. Conclusion:
- Restate fourth down at half time rule
- State importance with relation to creating a believable animation
- Question whether violation of the rule is purposeful or the result of bad animation
