4 On the Time menu, choose Reverse
The animation plays backwards. The ball bounces from right to left instead
of left to right, and the last bounce now happens on the letter F instead
of the double L in ball.

TIP You can easily reverse the playback of an animation using controls found
in the Time Configuration menu. But if you need to reverse the keys
themselves, this is the technique to use.

Summary


These Animation tutorials introduced you to the techniques of creating
animation. You learned how to animate a bouncing ball using the Auto Key
button and transforms, how to control in-betweens using key interpolation
and ghosting, and how to loop animation using Track View controls. Finally,
you've learned about animating with dummy objects, using the Dope Sheet
editor and weighted list controllers.
