More inbetweens allow this finger cushioning example to relaxedly ease out of the closed hand, speed right through the middle, and slowly ease into the pointing finger.

As for the opposing end that is ‘easing in’, that is best represented by this other finger cushioning example.

Alternative terms for ‘cushioning’ include ‘snapping’ and ‘speeding’

It is always fundamental for animation to have a change in shape, as visually explained through the Finger Cushioning example - this one focuses on ‘easing out’.

This correctly animated swinging pendulum example has a couple more in-betweens to help it ease in and ease out more fluidly.

Time to talk more about this animation principle in greater detail!

Another way to try out the sliding circle example is to keep the same timing as before while changing the spacing to ease out of both the starting and ending positions, as shown through this gold circle.
