Adding finishing touches to the animation
By making a complex animation that is controlled with only two keyframes, it makes adjusting the overall animation incredibly easier than if you keyframed it by hand or all the falloffs individually. Now, to adjust the pace of the animation, you just have to adjust those two keyframes. So let's open up our timeline by going to Window > Timeline, and let's just zoom out and frame up our two keyframes here. And let's open up our Effector Control, Position, Scale, and Rotation tracks here. We don't need the Rotation, so let's just delete that. We don't need Scale either, since we're not changing any of the rotation or scale values. Let's twirl down our Position. And you can see that the only track we really need to worry about is the position X, because that's the only track that has any movement. So we can get rid of the position Y and the position Z. So now that we have our timeline all uncluttered, we can see that this is our animation curve. And by default, when you just hit…
