Video Transcript

"Did you ever have the feeling that you are being watched? Several famous cartoon characters have. And next I'm going to show you how to draw a very suspicious looking expression on your cartoon. Okay, so we're going to go back and start with our basic eye shapes here. But one of the things we're going to do, it's going to be very important, is going to be the shape of the eyelids on this, which is going to be a curve, a topsy turvy shape. We're going to start here low and then go up over the side, almost like a very sedate, not quite bench enough S shape, if you want to think about it that way. Or like a wave which is starting at its peak and down to its trough. So we're going to do that. And we're also going to have our eyes, be glancing over in one direction, kind of like almost if it would be behind your shoulder. Nose is going to be the same. Okay, you're going to have the mouth, it's going to be off to the side and open enough, open and an O shape. It's the same as like, hmmm, that type of expression. You're going to draw the ears in normally. Rest of the face is going to be relatively sedate. Come back over the jaw line. Your nose, the mouth is going to be off kilter in this one. Drawing the hair up over the top. Now one of the things I save to last in this case is the eyebrows cause they're important. You're going to have one of the eyebrows is going to be elevated, the other one's going to be lower. As if like a hmmm, kind of expression. Now, something else you can do here which is breaking somewhat and the general face is adding in Sally Hunch shoulders. Normally we just try to stick with the head here but it's important with suspicious. You have your shoulders kind of bunch up a little bit. Almost as if you're looking off in a certain direction."
