What It Does
Easy Bounce converts rough keyframes into realistic bouncing animations using physics simulation. Keyframe the general path you want, marking each bounce point and peak, then click the Easy Bounce button. The tool recalculates timing and motion curves to create natural-looking physics, including ground impacts, trajectory arcs, and gravity effects.
The workflow removes the tedium of manually timing bounce animations. Instead of adjusting dozens of keyframes and velocity curves by hand, you define the spatial path and let Easy Bounce solve the physics math.
Key Features
Free version handles core bounce animations with ground impacts and position retiming. Keyframe your path, run the tool, and it adjusts timing to match realistic physics. Works for most basic bouncing ball or object animations.
Pro version adds wall bounces, so objects can ricochet off vertical surfaces, not just the ground. It also retimes other keyframed properties (rotation, shape paths, effects) to match the new timing, keeping your entire animation synchronized. Gravity control lets you adjust the strength of the physics. Squash on impact deforms layers when they hit surfaces. Scripting and KBar API allow automation and integration with other tools.
Both versions support subframe accuracy, work area constraints, and a “keep apex” option to preserve the highest points of your bounce path.
Who It’s For
Motion designers animating bouncing text, logo reveals, or character movement. Useful for any project where objects need to fall, bounce, or ricochet in a believable way. The free version covers simple ground bounces. The Pro version suits complex animations with multiple surfaces or precise timing requirements across multiple properties.
