Bouncing ball with a personality!

Another new maya video! This time it is a bouncing ball with character, it bounces down stairs and jumps through hoops. I'm pretty happy with this one, although I did discover, after working in just the side view of maya that when I switched to the perspective view the ball was miles away from the stairs. It was safely rescued though and below is the finished video. What have I learnt? Don't just work in the side view, work in all views when using 3D software!
