Examples:
1. The goal for the animations
In this Youtube video, we like the way the animations highlight the movements and direct the attention of the viewer toward the paths of motion that are harder to visualize.

2. Our current tutorial video
We want to improve these videos to be more like the example above. Highlighting movements clearly and indicating errors more specifically.
