animating with stick figures

I have found some great tutorials on animating using only stick figures. This lets you focus on the movement rather than character proportion and consistency.

overlap on ball throw

this exercise has helped me to understand the principle of overlapping action. the two drawings below places the body in two separate extreme poses. the first one shows the body going as far back as its going to go. the second shows the arm in its extreme back position while the body is starting to move forward. this allows for a more fluid and interesting movement .
