How can I get my character on his knees and make it seem as if he is proposing? also, I’m missing a character here.
@BECCA walks to downscreen center and THEO walks to upscreen center

NARRATOR

Theo places his hand on Becca shoulders as he can feel how soft her skin is.
Becca suddenly feel a warmth within her that she hasn’t felt in a long time.

THEO (hug_nervous_loop)

(Wow she is beautiful.)

BECCA

(Wow his hands are soft yet strong.)

THEO (talk_agree_happy)

Ok Becca breathe in and out for me slowly

BECCA (deepbreath)

(My heart is racing so fast. I do have a boyfriend.)

For kneeling I think the animation is called kneel_reach

You’ll have to play around with certain animations and zooms. You can use the “reach_kneel” animation, then have your character do the “talk_kneel” animation, or any other talking animation but you’ll have to zoom in on their upper torso so that you can’t see their feet

Thank you. now I need help in having her laying down and I have no idea about spots.

Sound complicated lol

: Spot Directing (Moving Characters Around)
: Spot Walking (Walking w/Spot Direction)

Thank you!

Just zoom in on them in 0 seconds

Okay. Is it supposed to look like this:

Do you know how to highlight words in different colors in the speech bubbles. I want to highlight some Japanese Terms I will be using in my story.

Yes that looks really good!

You will need to use text effects. You can find them on the right side of your script under “Text Effects”

Click on the color you want and put that in front of the text you want highlighted, then reset the text effect after the words, otherwise everything after will continue to be that color

Here’s an example:

CHARACTER
I hope you have a | color: magenta | super amazing | reset | vacation!

Okay, thank you!

Okay I did that, and this is what happened:


I can’t see the character that is in front face.

You need to make them all be idle, otherwise they will stay in the last position of the last animation they were doing. Miranda needs to be facing right, so that she will end up faces left while rear, and she needs to move to a higher layer than the others.

Okay. I thought I did that in my script.

Are you trying to switch them back to the other side so that the characters are rear facing Miranda who is front facing?

Yes!

Then you have to switch back to their other spots, and make Miranda be idle so that she won’t be rear anymore

Do you have a guide to layering?
