oh hi, you looking cute today. Class is in session though so PAY attenttione. This has been requested on every recent videos so I hope it helps you have a great weekend, otherwise I'm sending you to detention.
@Elliepopcorn all it takes to learn the proportions and how to apply them is practice of Loomi's (?) method of drawing faces. Just draw them a lot and don't render/leave with a very simple shading, lines are all that's needed You can find a ton of tutorials online, or can read his book on drawing the head (I heard a lot of positive reviews about it)
finally a tutorial about facial expressions, I remember commenting on one of your posts in Facebook that recommended about making a tutorial on facial expressions because I was having a hard time drawing expressions at that time, thanks for making this tutorial
Tbh, expressions is the one thing that I need to take advantage of. It’ll bring my art to the next level but I was always so confused about conveying certain emotions, I’m so used to drawing my characters with a simple 😐 face lmfao. Thank you for this! 💕
Marc, can you give us some tips on creating interesting and unique characters, and then keeping them looking the same through different poses, outfits and expressions? Maybe you could explain how fashion composition, poses, expressions, and color theory make memorable characters.
I guess to get more expresive, you need to help with body language. You need to push your character that you can read how he/she feel it even without see their face. Man Marc classes are amazing!
I've been watching your youtube videos for a few months now, and I just wanted to say thank you for making these! As a kid I was always drawing something somewhere, and somewhere along the way I had lost that passion, but you've helped me in finding that spark again! You inspire thousands of people every day, and you are truly an incredible instructor and person. I'm getting teary eyes just writing this damned post but it's so important that you know how big of a difference you are making in peoples lives. I don't know if I'll ever be a professional artist, but the joy i've gotten from finding that passion again has truly been transformative in my life. I hope to be able to take your full course someday! From the bottom of my heart: Thank you, Marc.
I wanted to leave a comment with the same thoughts, but you already did, and there is nothing to add, great words! Really helpful channel, so inspiring! I'm very happy that one day I found it! Marc is amazing
I'd love to see a follow up to this with how lighting changes the different expressions. Have found a lot of my art gets very different expression entirely by which position I place the light source. Low angle lighting really does make characters look menacing sometimes when the same expression is a normal smile when lit from above
This video is so helpful! Thank you Marc! And Marc ive been struggling with drawing Characters like characters sitting or juat standing in perspective, I hope you can make more videos about Perspectives more! Thank you Marc! ❤
And just when I needed it I found this video on my "watch later" Playlist. Thanks for sharing this knowledge🥺❤️ Also, it's not very important but when we express emotions our pupils react as well (with fear they get smaller and with happiness they get bigger) it's a little detail that is usually exaggerated on animation.
Why I cant like this more? Thank you my friend. The last part was amazing. that simple trick of turn the head up/down helps push the emotions. I really like it.
I love you're tutorials and tips so much man Im currently an 11 year old learning about art and striving to be an artist ever since I was young I always admired about how cartoons are animated, paintings, those youtube animations about theyre ocs and stuff😆 you're motivation honestly thank you marc🦍🦍💞‼️‼️
I cannot express how many things other people have explained and I didn't understand, that you do it is instantly 💡. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💯🏴☠️💜✌🏼💪🏼
Thank you very much for your assistance; it is greatly appreciated ❤️. I've been having trouble painting facial expressions. But, in your next video, could you please make a tutorial on how to draw a character face consistently? I've been struggling with that as well.
It's kind of a fun exercise to draw a dozen rather simple "smileys" with exaggerated expressions (not just typical emotions, but various reaction faces for no better description) and then try to copy those with the face of some character(s) you came up with. The first part of doodling the smileys seems to make it a bit easier, since you're thinking of the features of a desired expression rather than trying to get things right with proportions or other technical details. The challenge is getting what you did with the smileys to fit on the other character while keeping still its traits intact. Can be done for fun alone, but if trying to do it more like a study just block it out on a grid to do side-by-sides.
Ive been rewatching this quite a few times now just to refresh the info thank you for all you give to us marc, i hope to give something back to share to you soon! :) hope you had a nice day ps. your new video was great too because its what ive been doing past few weeks as well xD
Man this was amazing... Can you make a tutorial on how to draw faces tilting forwards and backwards one day? I really struggle with placing the facial features when I'm trying to tilt faces. As always thank you for all your hard work Marc ❤
My method of thinking about emotions are what are they doing to our bodies: If you are surprised you want to take in as much information in as possible because of the sudden change in atmosphere. If your angry , your body tenses up.... But later I realize , that it only works on very extreme sensations and feelings so my characters usually look either nothing or world end. So this video filled those gaps in between
I recently got a Huion pen tablet, so I have been binge watching your amazing classes....I love the weird ways you begin your videos and I love how interesting your classes are.....also you have really nice cheek bones bro...you are very good looking,anyway keep on making amazing videos Marc
That was super helpful! To the point and all you need basically, I've struggled a lot with some emotions and now I have a solid starting point for any expression. Thank you!
As much as this helps with drawing it can also help with acting since you are showing ways to draw your expressions beginner actors can use this as a big help knowing what they have to do to get the expression!!😊
What a great video ! BEST tutorial ever I seen, was struggling for a long time but with this I am getting so much better Thank you for this amazing piece.
I don't know if you've done this before but I'd like a class about textures. I struggle so much with adding any to my work. Like the difference between skin and fabric and how to render things differently depending on the material. Today's class was very helpful! I'm definitely going to do few exercises based off of it.
I recently watched a video explaining how important it is for content creators to get those likes and subscribes. I had no idea how wild the RUclips algorithm was. For anyone that doesn't like the video: please do!
ooh these are some really good things to note! watched invincible the other week and seeing the comics made me realize how good awesome facial expressions make the drawings better, I should practice this more c:
It's very magical to witness this progress. how one little change does so much. And i really like how alive these faces look yet they are so simple. One day i'll get there champs.
I very like idea of thinking how muscle will move, before making expressions, that's very valuable advice even if it's hard for me to distinguish them.
man i love the intros and the way u edit and also speak and teach its so much fun if u ever teach in an offline like artschool i will do everything to join there but seriously you are so much fun to learn from i love your videos!! i'd love to get some advice or a future video perhaps on how to manage time and like schedule as a self learning artist like for someone trying to make it in the art world by themselves and need some structure to their day and learning process have a great day!!
You said you read every comment so I wanted to tell you how much I love your voice and how you narrate. Also your intros and outros. Your videos are just super fun to watch.
Hi sir marc! I've been watching your videos since 2 years ago, and i can really see my improvements!! All of your tutorial videos really helps me improve art! Thank you so much!
Im two years late to thie video but omg this is FANTASTIC. Im attempting my first reference sheet for a character and this video is everything i needed to help me draw out their various facial expresssions. Will definitely be rewatching this a few times 😆
hey last your video helped me a lot when designing characters with emotions by a lot and also how characters take a hit or have to impact on or by something, again thanks and it was worth watchin
oh hi, you looking cute today. Class is in session though so PAY attenttione. This has been requested on every recent videos so I hope it helps you have a great weekend, otherwise I'm sending you to detention.
Sup marc
You, you are the reason I am improving. thank you.
(๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ
thank you sr marc
i was really looking for this!! thank you Marc! Also you looking great today too
Marc is slowly taking over the world with his clones.
Doubt he keeps blowing them up 😣
I think the clones taking over Marc
If the world ends by the sky being blotted out with Marc's I'm pretty okay with that. It's how the Mayans would have wanted it
hey more art, not a problem
Told you he had clones
It's the worst when you draw 10 expressions and they each look like different people :(
Mine dont even look like lol
Proportions is the key 👌
say that to anime characters when they suddenly reveal to be evil
I can't even make both eyes the same size ffs
@Elliepopcorn all it takes to learn the proportions and how to apply them is practice of Loomi's (?) method of drawing faces. Just draw them a lot and don't render/leave with a very simple shading, lines are all that's needed
You can find a ton of tutorials online, or can read his book on drawing the head (I heard a lot of positive reviews about it)
If Marc could multiply a copy of himself that means each one of us could have a personal art teacher.
finally a tutorial about facial expressions, I remember commenting on one of your posts in Facebook that recommended about making a tutorial on facial expressions because I was having a hard time drawing expressions at that time, thanks for making this tutorial
this is actually what i wanted for practice today, I feel like you can read our minds xD
thanks for this tutorial, sensei!
he can totally read our minds
and clone himself
Tbh, expressions is the one thing that I need to take advantage of. It’ll bring my art to the next level but I was always so confused about conveying certain emotions, I’m so used to drawing my characters with a simple 😐 face lmfao.
Thank you for this! 💕
Cheeze guys this legend is going crazy with the intros! I honesty appreciate the amount of humor you radiate Marc, can't wait for the next Art Lesson!
This is literally what I was practicing, im convinced he has implanted chips in our heads that read our minds
That's how Universe works
changing the iris size is also a great way of exaggerating an expression, like making the iris smaller when the character is angry or scared.
Marc, can you give us some tips on creating interesting and unique characters, and then keeping them looking the same through different poses, outfits and expressions?
Maybe you could explain how fashion composition, poses, expressions, and color theory make memorable characters.
I swear, everytime I need to learn something, you'll post it just when I need it. A true life saver indeed
Great stuff Marc - would definitely like to see a more advanced version of this with less common expressions.
I agree.
I guess to get more expresive, you need to help with body language. You need to push your character that you can read how he/she feel it even without see their face. Man Marc classes are amazing!
This is actually what i wanted to study this coming week. Thanks for organizing it for me Marcy boy.
I've been watching your youtube videos for a few months now, and I just wanted to say thank you for making these!

From the bottom of my heart: Thank you, Marc.
❤️ thanks Tony!
I wanted to leave a comment with the same thoughts, but you already did, and there is nothing to add, great words!
Really helpful channel, so inspiring! I'm very happy that one day I found it! Marc is amazing
I was drawing random characters and was having a hard time with facial expressions, thanks Marc!
ᵗʰᵉ ᵗⁱᵐⁱⁿᵍ ᵗʰᵒ
7:37 aka the Jack Torrance smile ;D
Bro the way Marc just whips up ✨amazing faces✨ without even using any first sketch is just 👌😩
This guy has been full of positive chill vibes for so long, I love him
I'd love to see a follow up to this with how lighting changes the different expressions. Have found a lot of my art gets very different expression entirely by which position I place the light source. Low angle lighting really does make characters look menacing sometimes when the same expression is a normal smile when lit from above
I think Marc is a god, i was literally looking for a facial expression video to help me improve yesterday, and today he posted this video.
I'm so grateful for your tutorials. I was stuck into a point of my art, and finally i feel like i'm evolving it. Thank you so much!
This video is so helpful! Thank you Marc! And Marc ive been struggling with drawing Characters like characters sitting or juat standing in perspective, I hope you can make more videos about Perspectives more! Thank you Marc! ❤
Ive been loving these "level 1-3" videos I have been seeing, keep it up :)
And just when I needed it I found this video on my "watch later" Playlist. Thanks for sharing this knowledge🥺❤️ Also, it's not very important but when we express emotions our pupils react as well (with fear they get smaller and with happiness they get bigger) it's a little detail that is usually exaggerated on animation.
What I needed for like years. Thanks man. You are the best
We can trust Marc when he talks about conveing emotions, especially considering all those intros XD
Thank you! This really helped me improve my emotions! Finally, i can make people believe im human!
somehow this made the human face so simple now but at the same time shows how complex emotions can get on someone's face. so cool
Why I cant like this more? Thank you my friend.
The last part was amazing. that simple trick of turn the head up/down helps push the emotions. I really like it.
I love you're tutorials and tips so much man Im currently an 11 year old learning about art and striving to be an artist ever since I was young I always admired about how cartoons are animated, paintings, those youtube animations about theyre ocs and stuff😆 you're motivation honestly thank you marc🦍🦍💞‼️‼️
I cannot express how many things other people have explained and I didn't understand, that you do it is instantly 💡. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💯🏴☠️💜✌🏼💪🏼
What really helped me with expressions is that asking why is he looking sad happy or sad but try to laugh and observing what gives the emotion
Thank you very much for your assistance; it is greatly appreciated ❤️. I've been having trouble painting facial expressions. But, in your next video, could you please make a tutorial on how to draw a character face consistently? I've been struggling with that as well.
You are a god to me, and this is no joke. Your skill and your talent are absolutely insane. Seriously considering buying full program.
you're the biggest help on RUclips, PERIOD. thanks for being the best
Heyo thanks Marc! Your editing keeps me super entertained, so it’s more fun to learn from you!
There is actually a lot of material to practice in this vid even though it didn't seem long. Great work, this is exactly what I wanted on this subject
It's kind of a fun exercise to draw a dozen rather simple "smileys" with exaggerated expressions (not just typical emotions, but various reaction faces for no better description) and then try to copy those with the face of some character(s) you came up with.

Man this was amazing... Can you make a tutorial on how to draw faces tilting forwards and backwards one day? I really struggle with placing the facial features when I'm trying to tilt faces.
As always thank you for all your hard work Marc ❤
That yikes expression is what happens when she sees one of Mark's intros or outros of his videos.
I was literally exhausted finding some good video on this topic. Thank you soo much sir for posting this😊
It helped alot.
My method of thinking about emotions are what are they doing to our bodies:
If you are surprised you want to take in as much information in as possible because of the sudden change in atmosphere.
If your angry , your body tenses up....
But later I realize , that it only works on very extreme sensations and feelings so my characters usually look either nothing or world end. So this video filled those gaps in between

Right in time I'm having a School Plate for emotion drawing practice!! Thank you!
That was super helpful! To the point and all you need basically, I've struggled a lot with some emotions and now I have a solid starting point for any expression. Thank you!
These vids are pure gold, I can't stress that enough.
I've been focusing on studying faces lately, this comes in the right time! Thanks Marc!
As much as this helps with drawing it can also help with acting since you are showing ways to draw your expressions beginner actors can use this as a big help knowing what they have to do to get the expression!!😊
It been long since I've watched one of your vid, you had 600k subs then, now you're at a million, I love your work ethic
without fail, every time I need a video for something you always have an answer bro
This was excellent. Going in stages from simple to complex made it really easy to follow.
Marc! You're my FAVOURITE art youtuber!
A very useful tutorial. I've been struggling making my characters look smug so this helps.
What a great video ! BEST tutorial ever I seen, was struggling for a long time but with this I am getting so much better Thank you for this amazing piece.
this video truly changed my life
I was about to study facial expression this week. ur video just came at the right time!
The faces you added of yourself is hilarious. I love it !
You don't know how overjoyed this makes me, finally, thank you.
That's a video that I didn't knew that I wanted, I'll come her in the future many more times, that's for sure!
literally my favorite youtube channel, the art lessons i've always needed and just a hilarious guy
I don't know if you've done this before but I'd like a class about textures. I struggle so much with adding any to my work.
Like the difference between skin and fabric and how to render things differently depending on the material.
Today's class was very helpful! I'm definitely going to do few exercises based off of it.
Marc never disappoint us with his tutorials
My Absolute FAVORITE episode so far. THE secret for never drawing Dead Face!
I recently watched a video explaining how important it is for content creators to get those likes and subscribes. I had no idea how wild the RUclips algorithm was. For anyone that doesn't like the video: please do!
My characters are simply too cool-unbothered-rest-face, they don't need expressions, that's what I tell myself
ooh these are some really good things to note! watched invincible the other week and seeing the comics made me realize how good awesome facial expressions make the drawings better, I should practice this more c:
It's very magical to witness this progress. how one little change does so much.
And i really like how alive these faces look yet they are so simple.
One day i'll get there champs.
I very like idea of thinking how muscle will move, before making expressions, that's very valuable advice even if it's hard for me to distinguish them.
I literally struggled with this last night, and here you are in my recommended this morning!
omg this worked soo well for me! thank you very much! helped me a lot with my comics)))) Im a fan from Kyrgyzstan 💖
man i love the intros and the way u edit and also speak and teach its so much fun if u ever teach in an offline like artschool i will do everything to join there but seriously you are so much fun to learn from i love your videos!! i'd love to get some advice or a future video perhaps on how to manage time and like schedule as a self learning artist like for someone trying to make it in the art world by themselves and need some structure to their day and learning process
have a great day!!
7:35
“You’re supposed to be lower through the camera perspective but your facial expressions display power” checkk
9:35
😂
Thanks, Marc. You really grow as a video maker.
This is awesome Marc, nicely done. Would you ever do a more in depth version of this topic?
Thanks, maybe as an additional class for the program!
5:03 Yeah, that's terrifying. But then again, you could break the rules to go for an uncanny valley type thing.
Thank you for your videos. I'm a guy learning the ropes and using a simple iPad. You're very helpful
You said you read every comment so I wanted to tell you how much I love your voice and how you narrate. Also your intros and outros. Your videos are just super fun to watch.
Hi sir marc! I've been watching your videos since 2 years ago, and i can really see my improvements!! All of your tutorial videos really helps me improve art! Thank you so much!
i tried doing the different angles and it definitely boosted the way the expressions looked thank u!
The intros just get better XD
finally I see a guy on art
These intro's and outro's are getting crazy. Love it! :)
Im two years late to thie video but omg this is FANTASTIC. Im attempting my first reference sheet for a character and this video is everything i needed to help me draw out their various facial expresssions. Will definitely be rewatching this a few times 😆
Keep up the good work, man; we're all grateful. love the beard by the way.

1:57 I can't.. This is so much.
Alright boys getting my motivation back these Marc videos gonna help!
I'm saving this. I think it's that important.
Lmao the clones
There’s so many you’d think he’s trying to eliminate a Jedi order
🏆
Thank you teacher! (You are the best teacher by the way)
