Easy CG moving holds How-To

Easy CG moving holds How-To from Keith Lango 'What is a moving hold? Well, it's a relatively Cg-centric animation term coined by some with a flair for the ironic. The short description is that a moving hold is the slight bit of motion a character has while they are in a pose. The need for moving holds in Cg animation is vital due to the fact that a CG character just feels absolutely dead and lifeless the moment it stops moving. Hopefully by the end of this little tutorial you'll have a better grasp of what makes for a good moving hold. Granted all the animation is pretty quick and dirty, but the goal here isn't to impress you with highly polished pieces but to get the idea across. So think of these as "animation sketches".'
