Roberto’s research looks at how body movement in animation can reveal a character’s personality in the same way that looking at someone’s angry face can reveal their mood. His research examines how various types of movements, gestures, and body language are used to convey personality. Following that, he gathered data on what people believe certain movements represent, as well as industry animators’ animation workflow techniques. Roberto conducted an experiment involving animating a character who can visually communicate a certain characteristic by performing certain actions.
