Animation ‘attitudes’

You should be good at reacting as well as acting, be able to read a situation and know what your character would do in that situation. This is not slow-turnaround theatre, TV or movies with lots of rehearsals and retakes and time to find your motivation. The characters may be drawn already, and you have to not only read the words that they will appear to be saying, but also react to what it has already been decided they do … and do with each other.

You won’t get line-by-line directions, you need to watch what is happening on the screen and immerse yourself in the character’s storyline as you play your part, not simply read the script. So that could be sighs and coughs and laughs.
