research project thoughts

Had a meeting with Baris yesterday which went really well where we discussed ideas for the report.

We were looking at what I like, which is character design and discussed empathy and narrative and correlation with design.. 

I have been trying to think of possible questions or topics and have come up with this so far..

1. How does modelling help to create empathy in a narrative
2. How would you model life and personality in to a still character
3. How can you model a still character and be able to immediately identify their personality
4. The way emotion and personality are shown in a still character
5. How does (a specific modelling technique) enhance the animation process

From this I think I am interested at looking at emotion/personality/life in a still character. I don't like how still character sounds.. static, stationary, unanimated, motionless, immobile are other words I could use....

The ways emotion and personality are shown in an unanimated character... ?

so that would be the topic and the question would be what are the ways in which emotion and personality are shown in an unanimated character...?? Maybe ask what techniques are used to create emotion and personality..

The title could be quite general for example I could have, enhancing an animation through.. doing something else like a technique used..
