Demonstrations of 30 second gesture quicksketch
Drew along with the video and did a few more 2 minute ones.
Once again, they could be a lot better but I struggle so much with getting my hand to go where my head wants; it's hard to keep up.
Hello! I have mad respect to everyone who is able to do this well, because this is one of the concepts I struggle with the most. Please, I really need feedback, I feel like my brain can't see/understand the basic concept behind it. I can't finish my 30 secs scetches on time and I don't like my end product. What am I missing? Find below an example of 15 sketches of 30 secs each
It takes time man, I feel like I’m barely grasping the concept as you can see my work below. Make sure you do 5 mins scribbles just to warm up before, it makes a huge difference. Your second page looks like you’re going in the right direction. It looks way more loose and fluid. From the video the 30 second sketches will look basically like stick figures but that’s ok as long as they don’t look stiff. Remember C and S curves is what we’re using to build these. One of my biggest issues was never exaggerating enough and making it look too much like the photo. Trust me I have books upon books of mediocre sketches. If you can look up Michael Hampton, his method for gestures is a bit simplified but really helps in improving your craft. I hope that helps. Peace out bro -Andrew
hi ! How do you guys do gesture drawing digitally? it seems off for me
What exactly seems off to you?
A lot of people have trouble getting used to drawing on a screen/tablet. There are screen protectors that add a slight bit of texture that seems to help some people.
There is also this website which has a training "game" to help you adjust.

You nailed it. These are perfect for 30sec drawings. If you wanted to add another challenge, you could try using more straight lines. This gives the figures more structure.
I like to ground the figures by suggesting the ground plane as well.
Keep up the good work 👍
I like how the time restriction had you reduce the neck, torso, pelvis and leg to just one big sweep. Nice.
50 thirty second figure drawings, changed from my tripod grip to my overhand grip, still getting used to it, couldn't finish some of them because I feel my brain is still getting used to the new grip, any feedback is appreciated!
Here are some 30 sec, from the the examples, and some 30 sec and 2 min session. Any feedback welcome. I know I tend to draw the head too small, or if i start with the head i end up drawing the body too large. Going to try to be more aware moving forward.

Beautiful work! You have lovely rhythms all throughout. I think once you start getting to the longer poses with more time for description, keep an eye out for ways to communicate the depth and form of the figure. You can use the cross contour lines you already have to really showcase how the figure is moving forward or backward in space. Key points to look for are at changes/twists in angle or at the peak of the form, so the hips and chest are good places to look at. You can also take a look at how the figure lands on the floor plane, even exaggerating the space between to add depth to the pose.
This is a good exercise. 30 seconds is barely enough time to sketch the pose but this is exactly the goal I am striving for use in animation production.
30 second poses from the examples here, and also some from other reference. I always run out of time and lack a limb lol. Critique is welcome.

here are my 30 second gestures. I have been practicing for a few days trying to get back into drawing this quickly. I wasn’t as used to it anymore so this practice was really good for me. any feedback is appreciated
