I'm a martial artist and an artist. I'm just now getting into animation and have been trying to film my own stuff. It's hard. Lots of work.
​Motion lab is incredible!!! There is no way this isn't useful for all illustrators and animators.

This is brilliant, it’s not just a pose library: it’s an innovative tool to help artists achieve animation through a technique that’s already familiar but it’s elevated by the production values & the experience of everyone working on the project
