It’s true. Every time a scene goes wrong or a character moves in a way they really shouldn’t, I learn something new. That’s where the real growth happens.
The bad animations that make you cringe or hit undo for the hundredth time are the ones that push you forward. So don’t delete your mistakes. Study them, laugh at them, and keep going. Every bad animation is secretly helping you make the next one better.
The secret is having software that lets you experiment fast and makes it easy to test, tweak, and try again, so you stop worrying about being perfect and start creating.
I’ve made plenty of bad animations and I’m grateful for every single one of them. Because each one got me closer to the good ones.
