This week I refined my acting block based on feedback. The character was moving too much during the line, which distracted from the performance. George advised that characters don’t need excessive movement and I needed to hold some poses to avoid shaky animation.
I reduced the body movement and focused more on facial expressions, subtle head movements and added shoulder movement. Following George’s advice, I exaggerated the eyebrow movement and let it lead the head tilt during the “modesty” part of the line. This added rhythm and attitude to the performance.
