You can set the animation to play once, three times or forever by using the option here. If you haven’t done it yet u might want to try to organize it. Here I just show you that I rename all the layer so that it would be easy for reference.Use the play button on the lower left of the screen to check whether you have got the bouncing sequence correct.

You can keep experimenting with the best time for each frame until you are satisfied. Click at the bottom of the frame where it indicate time.

Continue doing this until you get the full animation by unchecking and checking the eye on the layer column.

Satisfied with the alignment, you then go to Windows > Animation.If you can’t see properly the position of the ball, you can use the opacity tool to lighten the ball or just uncheck the eye icon on the layer column. Align them properly and make sure you put some good distant between each ball.

Keep on making copies of the ball and transform them if needed, until you get the full action of the ball bouncing from top to bottom.Using the free-transform tool (ctrl+T), manipulate the shape of our blob (like in the diagram) to create the illusion of a bounce. First of all, for a realistic looking bouncing ball, we’re going to transform the shapes. Here, we’re going to start making frames of the animation.Ball 1 Ball 2 You may rename the layers if you like (example: ball 1, ball 2) as we will be dealing with more duplications later on. This will create the ball in a new layer. Holding ‘alt’, click and drag the ball to duplicate it.To fill color, choose your color and then press Alt+ Backspace. Using the marquee tool, create a circle (hold shift and drag to make a perfect circle), and fill it with any color.
