Transdisciplinary Animation, Initial Ideas

I would really like to create an animation which is based on the movements of a sport. Particularly Skateboarding Snowboarding, or possibly Ice Hockey.

When everything goes right with these sports the movement is very flowing and natural, the tricks are made to look effortless and weightless. However, when a trick is failed or an action must be taken the movements are very violent and sporadic.

With these sports there is also a lot of technical skill involved which often goes unnoticed. These could be very small movements to centre the athletes balance or a very small shift in weight to prepare for a trick/jump. I think it could be a good idea to include some of these very small details within my animation.

Dane mentioned I should look into Kinesthetic Learning.
