Changes all camera shots in dialogue camera mode where focus is normally on the player character to instead focus on the NPC target only.
Now features an optional plugin for muting the player character voice. Consider using this if you want the player dialogue muted but not completely removed nor very short in duration. I have also lifted this optional plugin for muting the player into its own mod titled Mute Player Voice for anyone who wants to use this as a standalone from the SCDC features. If this is not your preferred way of having no player character voice dialogue I recommend the following:

Along with Silent Protagonist Patch Compilation by Luniartic for any mods that needs patching.
This mod provides a more subjective view of conversations when in dialogue mode, rather than an objective one, in an effort to enforce the feeling that you are the character in the scene and not just looking at it all from an exterior view with no sense of grounding in your player character. This is done by only showing the NPC, only seeing their reactions and facial expressions to what your player character says, while still retaining the cinematic look and feel of the dialogue camera mode.
SCDC still puts you in external camera shots when in dialogue only it no longer focuses on the player character during speech or when you as a player are choosing between dialogue options. See the video(s) below for examples of how the mod works in action.
Further details on how this works can be found in the "Details" section of this mod page.
Recommended to be used together with Full Dialogue Interface and a mod of your choice for removing the voice of the player character. For great immersion!

Details
This mod intends to shifts the focus away from the player in the new dialogue mode present in Fallout 4 when in conversations. I personally really enjoyed the new cinematic dialogue camera mode but found that it pulled me out from my player character perspective too much and made me feel more of an observer than the character I was role-playing. This is especially frustrating if one uses a mod to disable player character voice acting as it will show the player open and close his voice with nothing to say. Thus the idea was born for this mod.
Instead of an objective view, where you see camera shots of your player character when speaking and choosing dialogue options, you will now instead
SCDC - Subjective Cinematic Dialogue Camera alters dialogue camera shots to focus on the NPC instead of the player character, providing a more subjective and immersive cinematic experience. This is a simple gameplay tweak for players who want a different perspective during conversations.
