Think a run cycle is just legs going back and forth? Think again. The way your character dashes, stumbles, or leaps says everything about them — are they carefree, clumsy, or unstoppable? A run cycle is mechanics plus personality in motion. So how do you make your run feel alive, not robotic?

If you want to learn how to build expressive, believable runs and add storytelling into your character’s movement, this live workshop is for you. In 2 hours, Edward will break down how body and mind influence the way a character runs, analyze different approaches, and animate a run cycle right on stream.

🎥 What to expect during the stream:

✔️ Learn how to break down a run into simple, clear steps

✔️ Understand how body mechanics and mindset shape the animation

✔️ Live analysis of different types of runs and what makes them unique

✔️ Watch Edward animate a full run cycle from scratch

✔️ Practical tips & tricks to avoid common mistakes

✔️ Overview of our 2D animation course led by Edward Kurchevsky

✔️ Ask your questions live in the Q&A session

This workshop is perfect for animation students, beginners practicing cycles, and anyone who wants their characters to move with personality and storytelling.
