Can I perform emotes while sitting in my chair?

I was wondering if it would be possible to wave while sitting in Seat.
I tested it in Studio to see if it would work, but it appears that you can’t execute emotes while seated.
What can I do to make this happen?
Is the only way to create an upper body only animation and have it play in a script?

Bumping this topic because I’m also curious if this is possible.

I think you need an animation.

That is how I was able to make it work.
