How to animate a character jumping off a ledge

Start by animating the character’s leap off the ledge. The body should fall with gravity, and the legs should bend to push off from the ledge. The arms should flail or adjust for balance. Once airborne, the character’s body should shift as they fall, and upon landing, the character’s knees should bend slightly to absorb the shock. Add dust effects or ripples in the surroundings to enhance realism.
