body language & facial expressions mood board - storyboard related



anger is a strong emotion i hope to portray in my animation. this picture helpfully annotates the different aspects of the facial features.












surprise - raised eyebrows wide open eyes. and an open mouth.














confidence and pride - smile, head tilted backwards with chin held high. smile causes the eyes to be partially closed.
















extreme anger - scrunched up nose, clenched jaw and cheek muscles. eye brows ruffled and downward. mouth snarling.











evil eyes. neutral mouth/nose position. head tilted forwards, eyebrows lowered, slightly looking upwards.































confident - wide smile, slightly raised eyebrows, head slightly tilted forwards.















confident - standing tall, high chin, looking up, broad shoulders, puffed chest


















frustration - clenched jaw showing teeth, wide eyes, slightly dropped eyebrows. scrunched nose.












pride - high chin, broad body posture, puffed chest.










anger - scrunched eyes nose and mouth, showing teeth. leaning in toward subject of anger.













childish anger - dropped eyebrows, slight scrunch of the nose, pout, head tilted forwards and rotated slightly, almost looking through the eyebrows.









pride and confidence - slightly raised chin, neutral smile, solid body stance, slightly lowered eyebrows.
















confidence shown in this video, is greatly portrayed through the body language.
While walking there is a swagger from side to side, and a purposeful movements. the facial expression is wide smiles with neutral eyes and nose and slightly raised eyebrows.

the confidence in the video is firstly portrayed with the character leaning backwards emphasizing the raised chin. the body language also is large and bold, again with a swagger and side to side movements while walking.

this walk sequence is very jerky but the steps feel purposeful and the confidence is brought through with this.
