Animation guide Squill
From The DarkMod Wiki
When you creating a particular animation find or record as much reference as you can. Act it out for yourself to feel what a certain motion does and how it is achieved.
When your animating in 3D think of strong poses that tells the viewer what it communicates. I usually check the poses by turning all the lights in the scene off to only look at the contour of the character (body language).
