Let’s Talk About Sexy, Baby- TWH Sex Series, Pt. 1: Emotional Contexts
One of the many questions that we get in our inbox is: how do you write a sex scene? Sex scenes, smut, romance… none of it is easy to navigate. But we’re hoping that this series (Let’s Talk About Sex, Baby) will help you ease into the world of writing sex– pun intended.
Our first article deals with emotional contexts and sex. This article is safe for work, but for the sake of the dash, is under a ‘read more’.
For the purpose of this article, let’s first define “emotional contexts” as being the mindset under which a character in a novel when deciding to or going through with an action. This can be something as simple as lovers holding hands because it makes them happy or as complicated as, say, a jealous lover who invites their ex out for drinks when they find out their partner is going out to lunch with their ex after classes. Emotions are messy like that.
This principle applies to all facets of daily life, especially sex!

Phoneme Chart by TheEndIsNearUs
This is a nice chart! Lipsync is one of my not-so-secret passions. I also hate front mouths. They’re harder to inbetween, I find, and they’re not used nearly as frequently. Here’s some ¾ mouths I made.
These are the basic shapes I was taught, and I use. Standard lipsync shapes;;
You have your closed mouth to open, to clenched teeth, to oohs, and your (often optional) F, L, and TH mouths.
Tips!
Your top teeth don’t move; I mean, stylistically it happens sometimes (Gravity falls does it fairly well, as much as I haaaaate that), but your lipsync will prolly look better if they don’t.
My clenched teeth (SH) mouth is always a bit wider than my biggest AH mouth. It adds variation and helps your shapes blend more nicely. Conversely, my biggest AH mouth is narrower than my SH mouth and my closed (M) mouth.
My L mouth is a tiny bit more closed than my biggest AH, and not as closed as my second biggest AH. It fits between them nicely so that if you have to go from an L to an AH mouth, like you would for the word “Like” or “Love”, it doesn’t pop or look weird.
My R and oo mouths move forward on the face a bit, it adds dimension, and if you leave it all in the same place and have the mouth just shrink into a circle it miiiight look weird.
Aaaaand I think that’s it? Never go from a SH mouth to a TH mouth, it’ll pop and look weird…uhhh; Also! It’s alright to skip some shapes;; So below is a lipsync I made using the above shapes;
It’s clear what they’re saying, the mouth is moving nicely, but there’s only one problem. Veeeery rarely do they give you enough time to use all the mouths you want to make it move nice. Voice actors talk fast to fit everything in and holycrap do we hate love them for it.
So here’s a fast one.
Those two gifs should start at the same time, and notice that the second one stops while the first one is still saying “doing”. I not only cut out the mouth between the biggest AH and the clenched teeth, but I combined the word “Are you” into, like, 3 shapes. I also trimmed some inbetweens overall. The lipsync still reads, though! You can still tell what they’re saying even without audio (which would help it a bit, haha~) Cutting out that stuff ended the lipsync a whole 14 frames sooner (more than half a second!). It doesn’t sound like much, but with 24 frames per second and dialogue moving at the speed of light, you don’t have time to dilly dally. This isn’t a preschool show;; Aaaaaand I think that’s it. Liiiipsyyyyyync~~~ Now to go back to actual work and stop talking about things most ppl don’t care about;
I AM CRYING TEARS OF RELIEF BECAUSE I NEED THESE REFERENCES FOR MY SENIOR FILM’S DIALOGUE~
Reblogging this again because I’ve been using this reference for the last 2 months to help with my lip-synch in my film, and I’ve just tested one scene where I used the reference…And my mouth-drawings have improved tenfold ever since.
To the OP who made this chart…I wish I could hug you right now because you helped make my film look much better. c8
This post makes its rounds every so often;; I’m glad people are getting use out of me not wanting to do the actual work I had!

writing adult emails is awful
its like
hi [name of person],
this formatting is making me uncomfortable but I have to tell you something / ask you something that is vital to my career as a student.
I re-read and edited that sentence for an hour, but you’ll probably just glance over it for half a second.
thanks!
- [name]
k
-professor
I have a stock format and structure I use.
Dear Person I am Writing To:
This is an optional sentence introducing who I am and work for, included if the addressee has never corresponded with me before. The second optional sentence reminds the person where we met, if relevant. This sentence states the purpose of the email.
This optional paragraph describes in more detail what’s needed. This sentence discusses relevant information like how soon an answer is needed, what kind of an answer is needed, and any information that the other person might find useful. If there’s a lot of information, it’s a good idea to separate this paragraph into two or three paragraphs to avoid having a Wall of Text.
If a description paragraph was used, close with a restatement of the initial request, in case the addressee ignored the opening paragraph.
This sentence is just a platitude (usually thanking them for their time) because people think I’m standoffish, unreasonably demanding, or cold if it’s not included.
Closing salutation,
Signature.
People always ask me how I can fire off work emails so quickly. Nobody has figured out yet that it’s the same email with the details changed as needed.
