After watching a few videos made in gmod, I've decided to make one of my own.

I chose to base it on I Am Legend, one of my favourite films of all time. Will Smith <3
Anyway, after a few hours messing around, I finally realised how much of a beginner I am with gmod, and to be honest, making films from games. So far all I have built is part of the exterior of the house where the main character will live.

I'm kinda stuck now. I don't have a clue about making characters do stuff and I have no idea what kind of addons would make my life easier. If anyone could help me out with this by reccomending a few, and giving me some advice on the characters, please, feel free too.

Thanks.

And for the character, you could use Louis from L4D as Will Smith.
If you want to make your character talk, here is a nice tutorial on how to use faceposer from Source SDK: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwjNBrRfRWA

For creating characters with animations and interaction, use faceposer. A tool included with the source sdk. Here's a tutorial to get you started.

My only suggestion, try something different for a film. The screenie/video section is filled with enough post apocalyptic dramatic art. People need to expand their horizons.
