HELP: Twins to do same action while talking

Creator's Corner Directing Help & Tips

Is there a way for my character and her reflection (twin character) to do the same action whilst talking?

This is my script part so far:

@JASMINE faces right and JASMINE is talk_greet_neutral and JASMINETWIN is talk_greet_neutral

@speechbubble is 189 270 to 79% with tail_top_left

    JASMINE (talk_excited_happy)
Oh, I'm [FIRSTNAME]. Thank you so much for helping me out.

But I want both characters to ideally be doing the ‘Talk_excited_happy’ action at the same time as talking rather than the greeting action above the text.

Just not sure if I can make both characters do something without having two text bubbles pop up?

Hope that makes sense!

You could use a narrator bubble.

Is there any way to make a narrator bubble look like a speech bubble? I want both the twin and main character to do the same action whilst talking so I’m not sure a narrator bubble would work because I would still have to do separate actions?

Didn’t work sadly, just made her repeat the action at the end haha. :sob:

Not readerMessage sadly! Just want my main character to talk and her reflection (twin character) to do the same action whilst main C is talking

You want them to both do the same action at the same time?
