      Animation is a very cool kind of artistry to me because there can be good animators with amateur drawing skills and amazing artists with amateur animating skills 😂 but we are all on the same path to get better 😆

    something like this has probably already been said but, for making it look natural smaller groupings of strands will be lighter and be affected more by the winds so you may want to exaggerte their flow and the may not fully settle between gusts, you could also split the hair into more sections, or if you want to put in the extra effort you could imagine the wave of air flowing accross and try to pick up strands as you'd imagine them being affected by the airflow, ofcourse this is alot more work so it depends on how important the flow is to the scene and how much time you have to do it.

    I'm most of my way through an exercise project right now that this lesson would have been perfect for. I think I'll do another pass using this as the guide when I'm done for the added practice. Thanks Dong, these lessons are clutch!

    • @hej2800

      The way I understood this:
      This is a gentle breeze that moves rather slowly, which means that one side will be reached before the other. Therefore, movement on one side should start before the other.
      To accomplish this, the animation from both sides is split into 2 halves and the frames in the half which is reached later by the breeze is delayed by pushing the animation frames of that half forward. This results in the effect of both halves being moved at different times by the breeze.

    i am having an issue and i was wondering if anyone had a similar problem: while doing the seaweed exercice, i feel like i cant keep the length of the seaweed consistent... due to the fact that it is always curved in some way, i find it difficult to estimate how long it is and therefore (especially when its has that s-shape) I draw it too long sometimes

    Is animating seamless, repeating clothing rippling a similar process/principle?
    I am also sure this process only gets harder with more detailed styles or even just longer hair too! If I may also ask, what is the most difficult or complicated hairstyle or type of hairstyle to animate and why? I understand if you would get in trouble if you were too specific, so you don't have to answer if you can't or don't want to. I am just curious.
