Cut scene to end of emotion

[taymar]

Hiya, I’m new to Episode and I’m having trouble trying to add a scene into my script where a character will do something silly and the person next to them will do the shush or flirt_fingersnap animation, and the camera will cut directly to the end of that animation while missing them actually doing it?

It’s in a lot of really popular stories and a thread similar was the “Freeze Frames with emotions” but they never actually answered how to script the scene. Is it a zoom effect?

Please help!

Usually, they take a photo of the characters while they’re in the pose and use a program for editing photos to put the two together.

So you got two ways:

@RudeInception

1. You use the zoom feature. You zoom and focus on another character or on another part of the scene. Then as the focus is away from the charatcer, have the character do the animation. Then when you refocus on the character, they will have the last part of the animation as their facial expression. (Bear in mind that you have to allow certain time to pass for the animation to finish and some animatiosna te longer than others.)

2. You can make a duplicate character. You put the duplicate character offscreen and you have them do the animation. Then you remove the character onscreen and place the duplicate character onscreen. The duplicate character will have the last part of the animation as their facial expression.

So i get how you do this but what if I want it to have the same outfit that the character chose for the MC
