 Welcome back. It is Thursday. That means acting analysis for animators and today I'm gonna take a look at part three of season one Succession as always good stuff to look at so why waste time? Let's get straight into the sequences and first up. We have this where he oh we have to laugh He's just so good. He's asking so how is her father doing and the help she is the Nurse she's taken care of the father and I love her looks This is all about her looks in the pantomime and the unspoken words. So if you look at so how is he oh Well, you know, she's all I love this I love all of the the lead-up that the face you got the Basically, she's looking kind of her a little bit switching over you got the beginning the eyebrow lifting and then kind of like well You know so now it becomes just a complete lie like off. Well, you know, they'll awesome shrug And then with that slight smile, she does make some sounds and she says well, you know But it's great. It's a great little moment. I would work without the lip-sync as well It's just such a great expression and to that she says well actually we don't know and Then he says here while we heard about the sock Basically, he is old and frail but he was able to put on a sock by himself and I love her reaction Well, it's just kind of yeah, uh-huh, right. Oops gotta go But she's not really Looking that long. It's such a just pretend gesture and I love all of this. I love all of her reactions. You got that. All right Okay, well, you're a funny one. All right, so I gotta go Well, let me just show you that it's time and I love that that the whining of the eyelids that stare Uh-huh, I gotta go. She just does not care whatsoever And again this could be the end of the scene but now we come back to his reaction going Right there What and I love that too that little head shake. She of course has the same reaction here going away What I love that beginning of something she wants to say something it kind of goes with that hand gesture goes wait What looks at her soon to be husband or husband and then he goes What I love this that little leaning forward that tiny little head shake is such a great reaction of what just happened So good next up. We have this awesome sequence here where he comes in introduces Himself in the everybody else. He got that, you know pretending to be all confident. You know, he's not really posture there introduces everybody else and then his brother who has a back problem at that point because of a trainer Somewhat of an injury. I love this here. So they all sit down and what I love about him is that wave at the end He already has that awesome thing of and he has awesome gestures throughout the whole show But all right, I'm gonna stand here because my back is killing me now. You might argue animation You don't have to point too much or act out words But you know life actually knows get away with other things, but I love this It's the fingers kind of turn in with that wrist. It's a great moment of I'm gonna kind of stand here So my back is killing me any of this I Love that like that. I don't care at all like yeah, you do you guys just continue on and I love that react. Look at that That little slight loose head shake That waving of his arms that expression. Well, you guys yeah continue on and then he continues Shoulders up gesture look at that face and then again watch out. Yeah, that little thing there So good and again, it's just a moment where well you guys just continue and it's not really in the audio It's like not something where he would say something that you think oh, he has to point or gesture I love that little moment of it's kind of preceded by that little head move. Look at this starts with the head like And then you guys the offset so good. I love little moments like that. Also his reaction to all of this is Okay, well, let's go Next time we continue with this character and this is an example From my love of props and sets and things that you can do where he has his new role. He comes in He's got that look there like yeah, yeah, I'm the new boss here He's got promoted and I love how it just that moment with the door kind of takes away that confidence Oh, well, I guess not that he cares But you can use this to your advantage where maybe a character really Tries really hard to be confident and to be seen as confident even though he doesn't feel like it Then you got a moment like this that will potentially push that character into not a breakdown What something where it's much more exaggerated. Oh, no, I did this and I already can see that I'm not confident and all that good stuff, but I love that little moment You know that comes in and he has all his is moving back with his Jacket here and looking at his table. Yeah, that's my desk now And he continues on in that sequence there But I love that little moment of just a simple thing of I can't really open the door. Whoops And you can do this where you might do this right and he does continuously doesn't care But in your case, you can use this as an idea and then he would stop He would look around maybe some people that are working back there would look up at him and Maybe smile maybe do nothing and he would have a nervous look and then come back and from now on All of his confidence is gone and all the other moves for instance I walk like this would then be a lot more nervous You could use this for instance But he would fill around maybe with a tie or something and all that feeling and that nervous and moving around Would be the contrast where you start in a confident way and then because of this now you're much more nervous And again something about confidence and the prop they are brainstorming and candle is on the table I don't like he took his shirt off But he is on the table and their brainstorming or we can do this we can do that and maybe you can use this as He's elevated not to be able to talk down to other people, but it elevates him it gives him confidence He's how he has a higher ground He can look down upon all the problems that he has the reason why I'm showing this because well everything's okay Now we got to talk to our dad and he doesn't like that and that's that moment. Oh, right And now what he does is hmm, okay Then he steps down and then the shot continues where they do their thing But again, you can use a set piece where the character is on it and is standing on it for whatever reason to feel better To look down upon their minions or whatever it is but that elevated position can be used for some acting reason and then you got the contrast in the change and the Emotional change and the headspace change and everything where he goes hmm It's a bit of a problem and now he's not so confident and then you can visualize that by having him or her Step down from the table the chair whatever that character is on But I like those I like those elements where since you have a character in the set And then you have chairs and a table or whatever you have if you already put that into your scene Then maybe use that to your advantage where you use that to elevate a character Metaphorically symbolically however you want to but this these are all great moments and great opportunities to use For your acting moments in your in your scene or your sequence boom There you go as always a good mix of pantomime and acting and reactions and set pieces If you know watch that channel, you know, I love sets and props And if you think that all of this is helpful and you think that I want to use this in my shots as well I have workshops we can work together and I can help you with all of this link description with all information about my workshops You can sign up at any time and speaking of time of course if you watch this whole thing till the very end I thank you so much for your patience and your attention And if you don't want to miss any of my uploads because I upload a lot You can subscribe and hit that bell button and for those who did that and I just crossed my 10,000 subscribers Thank you to all of the subscribers and the interest and people who keep watching this and participate I want to say thank you very much, and that's it from me.
