How do you bring animated characters to life?
Let’s clear something up real quick: It’s not the voice. It’s the why behind the voice. Lots of actors can SOUND the same. Only one FEELS alive. 🎭 Character lives in the details: • Motivation — what do they want right now? • Who are they talking to? • Quirks — the oddly specific stuff • Emotional truth — even comedy needs it • Subtlety — the pause, the breath, the choice you don’t overplay 🐱 Hello kittie moment: Hello Kitty doesn’t even talk… and yet she has more personality than half the auditions out there. 😌 Why? Intention. Presence. Emotional clarity. (If Hello Kitty did have a voice, you know she’d have boundaries & inflection and personality & an objective.) 🎭 Character Lab: Share ONE character you’ve voiced (or are building) and ONE intentional choice you made that gave them LIFE! Maybe it was: • A flaw you leaned into • A disease or speech impediment • A personal reference you emulated • A moment you did less and it finally worked No flexing. No gatekeeping. This space is about process over perfection. Let’s borrow each other’s magic and build better characters together. 👇 Drop your story below. Hear kittie kittie. 🐾🎧
