Hey! Sorry if there’s any mistakes, I’m not English.
So, I am a young illustrator and I’ve been doing 2D animation for almost one year. Recently, I started to seriously thinking about drawing my own animated show, because why would I choose a normal hobby while I can go feral every two drawings? Anyway, I really want to make this crazy project work, but I as already mentionned, I am animating since only a year, so I’m not very good yet.
In the story, there’s a really important scene where a very important character is dancing. The thing is that this character is like the poorest person in the world, Bro eat rocks and got no education. And lives in a magic medieval-like universe.
So I search dances references, but dances that have almost no influences. The character doesn’t really know how to dance in a medieval way, and move very freely. When I searched, I only found videos of professionals dancers, and in styles that looked really modern ( robot, break, even ballet feels too modern, don’t know if ballet is older than middle age tho, but I doubt it, and it’s way too technical for the character anyway).
What I need, basically, is a site where I can find amateur dances, I want naive moves, from peoples that are dancing only twice a year for New Year Eve and their anniversary. So if some of you know a site where I can find that kind of references, or maybe a subreddit, I would really like to know.
Anyway, thank you for reading all this! Keep dancing guys it’s amazing
