How to animate fluid movements in characters

Fluid movements are key to making animation feel natural. Begin by carefully defining the key poses of the character’s action. Use ease-in and ease-out between keyframes to create smooth transitions, ensuring that there is no abrupt or jerky movement. Consider the character’s mass and how it influences its motion, like how a character’s arms swing in response to their walking or running pace. Add follow-through on clothing or hair to enhance realism.
