Activity 3: Animating a Dialogue (Optional)
T-EXC-005-007
For this activity, you will spice things up by animating a dialogue. You will need two characters, two mouth charts and a recording of two characters talking to each other.
            
        
- Devise a scenario in which your character is talking about something that he, she, or it is quite excited about.
 
- Write one or two lines that your character will say and record them. You can use a basic microphone and sound recording program.
 
- Listen to your sentences and plan the breakdown. What are the important parts of the sentences? How will your character act when saying these things?
 
- Refer back to the mouth chart to make sure it is consistent throughout your scene, and draw the seven mouths for your character on a separate layer.
