Your presentations are the highlights of the Blender conference for me! This was great, already looking forward to the knowledge you will (hopefully) share next year.
This is a super-useful video not just for animators, but also for painters and sculptors as well. I've always made my hands either flat or tense, and I didn't know what was wrong until I watched this video.
Perfectly structured explanation! Learned a lot in a short time. I want this to replace university. I am Grateful that Hjalti shared his observation, so thanks Hjalti :)
12:27 is the demonstration of the "grouping" concept in visual design. The same can apply for trees or anything when you want to create variation instead of evenness.
Very interesting talk! For me it's the index and middle finger that "glue" together. And leading fisting/unfisting with the pinky feels unnatural. Anyone else with my hands?
Can not watch without playing around with my hand
:o
At the end of this talk seing my hands felt weird
The quality of the video stream is breathtaking. Of course Hjalti is amazing as always too :)
Love Hjalti! Studying animation on Blender Cloud with him :)

0:57 learned to pronounce your name finally!
Great hand animation tips and tricks!🖖🏼
Handy advice as always, thanks for the presentation!
11:39 ...tough crowd.
Thank you, this was pretty handy
Very instructive and useful, also he's really handsome
eating Hands and eating are two difficult poses for animators.
TED Talk .. but for Blender. Awesome content! Thank you!
Diversity of hands is our strength.
That was fascinating. As photographers we often obsess over hand position and I see animators need to as well.
thumbs up for this great talk, thank you
Great talk, thanks for the *rules of thumb*
great one!
Amazing, I just binge watched Hjalti's lectures and they are all amazingly informative while also enjoyable :) Great guest!
I was lucky to be in the audience :) Kept looking at my own hands and yes, Hjalti knows what he's talking about!
When you realize za hando is a jojo reference
Every year I have to see all they stuff again. It's one of the best modern animation pratice/theory I know
lmao the part where he is staring at his hand while recording it 😂 the dude next to him is like... u okay?
Great presentation. I've learned the importance of observation. Thanks!
I sure learned to not make a-thumb-ptions. What a handy video.
Brilliant talk so thought provoking and entertaining. Thanks Hjalti.
A hand was the thirst mesh I rigged in blender. This talk gave me some flashbacks:)
That's really helpful, thanks a lot!

Essential for any animator! Excellent, engaging talk. Thanks Hjalti!
There's a lot of hand/finger related pun in this one. I like it.

and yeah I agree, the fingers reajustment in 19:49 is really nice ;-)
2:41 as a former Martial Arts guy that hurts xD
Such a brilliant talk :-)

thank you
Now I know why I have always done it wrong. And why I always will do it wrong...
Very interesting talk! For me it's the index and middle finger that "glue" together. And leading fisting/unfisting with the pinky feels unnatural. Anyone else with my hands?
