I don't know what I'm saying. am I wrong? Hmm.. and.. Mike. W is one of my favorite characters in pixar movies. it worked greater than great. yay. Merry Christmas.

It is one of the most fantastic books EVER on the theories practices and ideas behind gestures. Sadly exams came and I wasn't able to finish it but it's on my pickup list when start backup this January.<br/><br/>Andrew! Awesome talk at AMO btw. I took tons of notes (about 6 pages front and back?) Just wanted to say thanks man and good job ;D I definately enjoyed it. Hopefully you'll come back and do some more AMO teaching? Either way, great stuff, you just made animation so much more inspiring man :) At my school here in Florida (Tampa) we actually have an original print of Manwatching in our library!

If you offset the timing and the guesture a little for each it looks more natural. Twinning is using the exact same timing and/or guesture on both arms.
