Animating on Twos

The value jumps in discrete steps (or once, for a hold) instead of moving smoothly; a hold is one instant snap that then stays put.

This is for a motion graphics video. Animate the change in [scene] with "Steps" (also called a stepped ease or hold keyframes): the value jumps from one position to the next in a few discrete steps and stays still in between, with no smooth in-between motion.
For a hold, make it a single jump — the object stays put, snaps to the new value in one instant and stays there. These are a few deliberate jumps, not the fine frame-by-frame choppiness of animating on twos.
Spread the jumps evenly over [duration].

Movement advances in visible jerky steps at a low frame rate (e.g. 8-12 per second), imitating frame-by-frame photographed animation.

This is for a motion graphics video. Give [scene] a "Stop Motion Look" (also called stepped animation or the posterize time look).
The movement should advance in visible, jerky steps at a low frame rate, each pose held for a moment as if it were photographed one frame at a time — the picture stays on throughout, unlike a strobe.
Run it over [duration] at its normal pace, keeping the same choppy rhythm from start to finish.

A small move in the opposite direction before the main move, like a wind-up; the start-of-move counterpart of Overshoot.

This is for a motion graphics video. Start the move in [scene] with "Anticipation" (also called a wind-up or back in): the object first pulls back a little in the opposite direction, then launches into the main move.
The pull-back belongs to the start, before the object leaves — it is the mirror of an overshoot, which runs past the target at the end.
Fit the wind-up and the move into [duration], keeping the pull-back small and unhurried so the launch that follows feels fast.

The object follows a curved trajectory instead of a straight line; compare with a straight A-to-B move.

This is for a motion graphics video. Move the object in [scene] along "Arcs" (also called arc motion or a curved path): it travels from one position to the next on a curved trajectory instead of a straight line.
The start and end points stay where they are — only the path between them bends, the way a thrown ball or a swinging arm moves, where a straight A-to-B move looks mechanical.
Fit the move into [duration], and keep the curve one smooth sweep with no kinks along the way.

The object hits the target like a ball hitting the floor and rebounds with smaller hops until it rests; differs from Elastic by a hard stop at each contact.

This is for a motion graphics video. End the move in [scene] with a "Bounce" (also called a bounce ease or bounce out): the object hits its target like a ball hitting the floor and rebounds in smaller and smaller hops until it rests.
It should never pass through the target — each contact is a hard stop that turns it straight back, unlike an elastic ease, which swings past the target on both sides.
Fit the move and its hops into [duration], and make each hop clearly shorter than the one before.
