Thank you very much!  Greatly appreicated!  

I had some feedback a few weeks back on Valeera requesting to see the animations working in-game along with the render.  Glad it's being recieved well

Nice presentation. The orange silhouette makes a nice touch. Its cool to see how those types of animations are broken down aswell.

sweet stuff!

My next question for you all is should I add music to the next one?  I felt like it would distract from the animation, but....I'm not opposed to it.

Thoughts?

For casual viewing music really does add to it. But most people who watch demo reels to really assess the animation itself tend to mute the music anyway. So why not.

Cool stuff Kurtis. How will HOTS 2.0 affect the anim sets? I figure the number animations would probably increase with new emotes being part of loot drops?

Buisness as usual for the animation team really. We've always included those emote animations to the Hero animation set. Now with the 2.0 UI updates, it'll just make it easier for players to access and trigger them   We're excited about that. No one really uses the /emotes in-game so it'll be nice that we can get some more exposure to the work our team puts in
