Hello all - I'm looking for critique on my assignments. Gesture is incredibly difficult for me for a variety of reasons. When attempting a 30-second pose session, it felt like I couldn't even establish all limbs without running out of time. Furthermore, on my longer sessions it became evident that I'm struggling to convey exaggerated motion, as many of my figures remain stiff. I believe that I'm heavily focusing on structure instead of motion, but I find it really really difficult to make the character look like anything resembling a human without drawing some semblance of form segments. I tried to reflect upon why my gestures turned out the way that they did in the notes section of each assignment. I think for my next few sessions, I'm going to start by drawing arrows representing the movement / action line of each limb and stringing each of those segments together. Hopefully that will have me focusing less on contours of each. Maybe this approach will even help me remember the asymmetry of connected body segments, as well as learning how to portray relaxed vs tense curves. Do any other beginners here feel like there's too many things to remember all the time with this exercise? Because I'm struggling -.-" I'm wondering if I should keep practicing these types of gestures before continuing on in the video series. Part of me wants to keep practicing this, but part of me thinks that learning concepts like "the bean" or 3d forms will help me in constructing the human body. Any thoughts? Anywho, I understand that I need more practice most of all. Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have any further suggestions for me :)
