Animating with Poses
Conclusion
This chapter has focused on the importance of posing and staging your characters. Remember to keep your poses natural and balanced. Avoid symmetry in your poses, and also be sure to keep a strong line of action and silhouette. You must always keep in mind that your audience sees your animation only through the camera. The best animation you can create won't come across if the camera doesn't see it properly.
