[3D Animation] Bowling Strike Animation

465 words

Overview

This is a bowling strike animation I created in Blender as part of a learning project. By following a tutorial, I focused on animation techniques, physics simulations, and scene composition, while also sharing the process with my school’s 3D club.

My Role

  • Used Blender’s rigid body physics to simulate realistic bowling ball movement and pin reactions.
  • Adjusted collision settings & mass to create a natural impact.
  • Created a smooth cinematic camera movement to follow the ball’s motion.
  • Added lighting and materials to enhance realism.
