Building on your foundation of animating characters with dialogue, this advanced course takes you deeper into the art of two-character performances. You’ll learn how to craft authentic interactions that go beyond spoken lines—showing characters thinking, feeling, and truly coming to life. Across six structured classes, you’ll explore advanced planning, subtext, and character specificity while mastering both video-reference-based workflows and techniques for pushing your acting choices without reference. From golden poses and directing the viewer’s attention, to adding texture, subtlety, and final polish, you’ll gain the skills to deliver compelling, cinematic performances that tell a richer story.
