Creating Your Lip-Sync Story

1. Develop Your Story & Dialog

Think about:

• What conversation or interaction drives your story?
• What do your characters want to say?
• What's the conflict or humor in the dialog?
• How do characters' personalities show through speech?

Dialog Tips:

• Keep conversations natural and conversational
• Give each character a distinct voice/personality
• Include emotional beats and reactions
• Use pauses and timing for comedy or drama

2. Design Your Animal Characters

Describe your characters with:

• Animal type (fox, rabbit, sloth, elephant, etc.)
• Personality traits (clever, optimistic, slow, wise)
• Physical appearance (clothing, accessories)
• Voice characteristics (energetic, calm, deep, high-pitched)

Character Design Tips:

• Choose animals that match personality (sly fox, energetic rabbit)
• Make characters visually distinct
• Consider how their animal traits affect behavior
• Design expressive faces for lip-sync

3. Set the Scene

Describe your Zootopia-style environment:

• Location (modern city, jungle district, tundra town)
• Time of day and lighting
• Atmosphere (bustling, peaceful, mysterious)
• Vibrant color palette

Lip-Sync Animation Best Practices

Character Dialog

Write natural, conversational dialog with a unique speaking style for each character. Include emotional reactions and expressions, using timing and pauses effectively. Avoid formal, stiff, or monotone speech, and don't overcomplicate conversations.

Lip-Sync Quality

Speak clearly in voiceovers, match dialog length to scene duration, and allow time for reactions. Shorter sentences sync better than long monologues. Pause between lines for clarity and match voice energy to the character's animation.

Visual Style

Embrace the Zootopia aesthetic with vibrant, saturated colors and modern urban or natural environments. Ensure animation quality features smooth lip movements, expressive eyes, and body language that matches the dialog for natural interactions.
