Turn your character into a performance.
You already know who the character is and how they sound. Now direct what they do: movement, expression, camera behavior, and timing.
Direct one shot at a time.
1. Movement
Describe one clear action: walk forward, turn, point, sit, run, or reach for an object.
2. Expression
Direct the face and body language: curious, excited, worried, confident, surprised.
3. Camera
Choose framing and motion: close-up, medium shot, wide shot, slow push-in, pan, or locked camera.
4. Timing
Keep clips focused. Decide what happens first, what changes, and how the shot ends.

Scene direction
Alex stands in a futuristic studio and turns toward camera with an excited smile. He raises one hand as he begins speaking. Medium shot, subtle cinematic push-in, natural body motion, consistent face and clothing, polished 3D animation, approximately five seconds.
Your shots move. Record the motion plan.
Add movement, expression, camera motion, and timing to each storyboard panel so every animated shot has a clear production target.
