“Be so good they can’t ignore you” - Steve Martin

Imagine applying it on your characters?

“Pose your character so good they can’t ignore it” - 2DAnimation101

If you feel like no one is talking about your character, it can be because they just honestly don’t care.

Good characters have to leave an impression.

People talk about the things they feel involved in.

You share a funny video, or meme on the internet because that video or image gets to you. Right?

Same with characters. You talk about the characters that get to you. Maybe they resemble someone you know. Maybe you just like it.

Pay close attention: It can be because the character is getting to you. It’s telling you something with its pose.

So far we learned that the secret to have an irresistible character is to have a good nonverbal communication that expresses a clear emotion, attitude or intention.

In other words, Expressive Body Language.

But careful, you need your character to have the correct pose.
