Mama Mía! The meat-a-ball is alive!

For animators, we all know about the bouncing ball. It's a classic example of shape movement and volume retention. But what if it was the classic ball was given some spice? Using Procreate Dreams, this simple thought grew into a fully realized character with its own Italian-inspired world to live in. And with a garnish of cinematic lighting plus a complete sound mix, this animation brings to life the squishiest and bounciest meatball there is.
