 |  Subject: Character Mannerisms  Thu Jul 19, 2012 8:46 pm | |
| Mannerisms are small gestures and movements that makes our characters unique. They are usually subconscious actions that can be used to give characters more depth and appeal. Rounding out a character involves more than just relating their conscious actions. What do they do when they're nervous, happy, scared, bored or angry?
Here are a list of mannerisms that you can think of, and I bet you do some too!- tapping a foot
- chewing the inside of the cheek
- biting fingernails
- greeting everyone with a hug or handshake
- a quick smile in greeting or nervousness
- a toss of the head
- lowering the eyes flirtatiously or timidly
- running fingers through hair
- snapping fingers or cracking knuckles
- blowing breath out through the mouth in exasperation
