Introduce new characters with a gesture and flourish - Deepstash

Introduce new characters with a gesture and flourish

Think of a signature gesture that communicates your character’s general vibe — anxiety, comedy, power — and show them doing this. 

Now think of the first thing about them that strikes your senses — do they smell amazing or terrible? Have they tightly curled, wild-looking hair? A voice so soft you have to lean in to hear? Draw inspiration from people you know or people you see on the street for extra originality. Avoid taking inspiration from famous people/characters.
