Silhouette

Just a short piece of advice from me today! I learned this from a friend who showed me the basics when I was starting out 2 years ago. I haven't seen anybody else doing it, but I bet there are others that do.
The Tip: In your animation scene, hide all the lights and environment models (except if they are important props), go into lit mode and watch your animation in silhouette! This is not a game-changer, but it might help you see some things you didn't catch right away. It's like in Photoshop, where an artist mirrors an image to see problems they hadn't seen before.
I only use this trick right before I'm ready to move into splining and when I'm polishing, so it won't lead me to make any really big changes, that's not what I use it for. What it does is it gives me the opportunity to see how readable an animation is with the bare minimum of information provided so I can find areas that need changes to improve that readability.

I hope this is clear and helps anyone!
