Notes: Squash and Stretch & Anticipation...The Subtle knife

smugbuddha: one of the basics.. animators tend to go crazy with squash and stretch...a lot of the time its that little bit extra that we like to add, to feel like we are doing some thing cartoony.
but used right, subtle, it moves away from being cartoony and adds to acting and emotion.. even on the simple shapes.

Elliot Roberts: " Even if those accents are small, the contrast will make a huge difference in how your scene feels, and will take your animation to a new level of appeal. "
