Why do stock images always have the left hand shaking and not the right?
To oversimplify, it makes the image seem more balanced.
The audience for this image is folks who can read English and are therefore habituated to parse text and images from left to right. By having the figure on the left use their distant hand, they avoid becoming the dominant figure in the image, thus emphasizing the figure on the right and leading the eye toward it. This keeps the eye-path from stagnating on the left-hand figure, improving the perception of balance between them even though it contradicts our expectations about the gesture.
That's bat-shit crazy to me.
Yeah, once you know to look for gaze-directing design you'll start seeing it everywhere. In movies and shows especially, a big factor in cinematography lies in how well the director can lead the audience's focus.
Probably because of Hollywood - for some reason they always seem to shake with their left hands, which always stands out to me
I'm not sure what the reason is, but I'm sure it's related
