Action or movement: low angle backward lean
Camera angle: Low three-quarter view
Primary study focus: Study the tilted torso and open arm shapes from a low viewpoint, using overlap to preserve depth.
30-second exercise: Draw the torso lean and the broad arm directions. Place the pelvis and feet as simple masses, keeping the open silhouette readable.
2-minute exercise: Compare the chest and pelvis planes visible from below. Check how the arms connect through the shoulders, then refine the overlaps around the head and torso. Use the visible foot contacts to understand the base without assuming a movement sequence.
Difficulty: Intermediate
Foreshortening: Moderate
