Video Transcript

"We are continuing now with our cartoon character and our character, well since we have kind of given a funky kind of appearance I think that is the route that we are going to go with the rest of him, his body. I think this character calls for a long lanky neck and I am going to start off with a slightly curved line going from the bottom of the chin to about there. I am going to do the same thing on the other side now so it is almost like we have two brackets curved inwards. So if you were drawing parentheses you would just flip them over and have that kind of look. And what we can do is we can close it up here at the bottom to give it a little more detail, since he is kind of a lanky character, maybe give him a little more C right here to act as his Adam’s apple. Again giving the character more detail, giving him more character in general. So now, we have got a pretty cool funky looking guy so far. "
