Pivot Basics

Here's the stuff you need to know:

1. To avoid stiffness, every joint should change in every frame. There are few exceptions, but you are allowed to have people standing still/dead.

2. Every movement is eased on some level. With a throw it will be vertically, with any other movement it will be in the direction the movement is going. You don't have to ease when someone hits something like a wall or the ground - if that happens it should be at maximum speed just before the impact and then come to a stop instantly or bounce. During a bounce (or upwards throw) it will leave the floor at maximum speed and then gradually slow from there.

3. Choppiness is bad. It's hard to give a precise definition of choppiness but you'll know it when you see it. To reduce it, reduce the spacing between frames and possibly up the frame rate. Easing also helps reduce choppiness because it can trick the eye into accepting heavy spacing.

4. Obey the laws of physics. The Newtonian laws of motion are the most important. Essentially, things don't just stop or change direction - if a guy is jumping through the air he cannot instantly lose all horizontal momentum and come back to the ground. Gravity is the other important one; it is covered by easing.

5. Sticks can only do what is anatomically possible. What this basically means is that when a stick lands from a jump it must absorb the shock or it's femur will go up through it's hips. Other important anatomical points are that the back shouldn't be over-bent and knees and elbows only go one way.

Ok zed, I've bend it a bit more, but couldn't do much more because else it would look quite awkward. Also he lands 3 frames faster now.
