Stick figures are very simple drawings of the human form - a perfectly round head with simple eyes and mouth. A straight line represents the neck and torso, with more straight lines for the arms and legs . Stick figures require no other detail except for the simple facial expressions.
Stick figures can have many different facial expression to indicate their mood, which all depends on the ways the author drew the eyes and mouth – happiness, sadness, anger, jealousy, envy, lack of sleep, fear and more. Stick figures can be a universal language because all people can understand the character\'s mood by looking at its face.
The character’s story is also a detail that can be communicated to the viewer. Flash animation is the software that often produces stick figure stories.

Film directors also use stick figures to draft movie scripts because it is one of the simplest forms of imaging.
