Interpolating in the Graph Editor
Now, let's use the Graph Editor to refine our animation, change the keyframe interpolation and velocity, and get something different happening besides just my normal linear keyframes. I am going to go ahead and drag my rotation value here and go ahead have it finish later like I was doing earlier, and rotate more so it has a larger value range. I'll RAM-preview that. Okay, but the problem here is that that snowflake keeps spinning well after it lands and then stops. Let's say I want to ease into that final position. There is a couple of ways of doing that. One, as you may remember from an earlier movie, you can select a keyframe, then use the Easy Ease keyframe type. You can ease both directions or just Ease into the keyframe. Once I do that, I get an influence handle that decides how it's going to interpolate into that value. I'll RAM-preview. You see now that the rotation gradually just comes to a halt here at the end of the animation. Easy Ease is just a default value; you're not…
