For this exercise I first worked out the keys for the mouth so I could get the lip sync down. I then thought about the acting. I tried to record a reference for myself and worked with one of the acting tutors to figure out the performance but I found it difficult to put movement into quite a subtle piece of dialogue. My interpretation of the audio was that it was somebody who had been through something painful and was sad when talking about it. I wanted to create movement without it being too much so I opted to have him look down and lean forwards/backwards as he was talking. I’m happy with how the performance turned out – just need to clean it up and add some colour now!
