Timing instrument 01

Shape the pause.
See the feel.

Start from a motion quality, tune position and rotation separately, then inspect exactly what survives at 2, 4, or 8 frames.

Tune one move

Preset names are starting points, not universal meanings. Your context decides how a move reads.

A practical loop

From adjective to evidence

A curve can suggest a quality; it cannot guarantee one. Test the move in context, at its real size and duration.

  1. 01

    Choose a starting quality

    Use the six intent presets to avoid staring at an empty graph.

  2. 02

    Separate travel from turn

    Position controls distance over time. Rotation can lead, lag, or overshoot it.

  3. 03

    Inspect the samples

    If the action must read in four frames, judge the four-frame strip—not only the smooth preview.
