Just discovered the fascinating world of hand animation through Noah Li's insights on the Just the Hands project, inspired by the iconic Patlabor 2! It's incredible how a simple rig can convey such deep emotions, transforming mere movements into a powerful storytelling tool. As animators, we often overlook the subtlety of hand gestures, yet they can speak volumes about a character’s feelings and intentions. This technique not only enhances our craft but also invites audiences into a more intimate connection with the narrative. Have you ever experimented with hand animation in your projects? I’d love to hear your experiences and thoughts on its impact! #HandAnimation #Patlabor2 #AnimationArt #Storytelling #AnimatorLife
