To animate a dialogue shot, I work in 3 stages. I also start by blocking 3 mouth controls, but there's a difference. This is my lipsync animation workflow!

The beautifull thing about this type of your videos is that even using other software like blender those tips are still completely valid and on point. I loved the video with JP Sans by the way, is one of my favourite. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge

@XxCatofShxdowsxX 4 года назад

My dilemma with lip syncing is that I work with anime style characters, and in a lot of anime styles the jaw doesn't move, so I'm not sure if I should move it or not.

@arttrixmix7178 4 года назад

maybe you can move it but only a little bit, it would be enough for it to not look jarring but not enough that it actually sticks out to people that the jaw’s moving

@ampdarts850 2 года назад

sounds like its up to you! do whatever you think looks good. even though anime characters dont really move their jaws, that doesnt mean u cant do it yourself! You can use that as something to set yourself apart from other anime styles. or maybe only move the jaw when the character isnt facing the audience or when they are in profile. its all up to you c:

@mrokhaos8269 4 года назад

thanks a lot man, just got a Freelance project has lip sync. One character speak as normal speed so It is ok. But the second character talks super fast, so after I playbast it he turns to a jaw poping machine XDXDXD which freaks me out. Very good advice, they help a lot.

@Chokwik 2 года назад

I'm citing you from this video in my bachelor's thesis. :D i have no clue how long it takes to make face animations by hand (blocking as you said), and i don't have time to learn it properly atm, so i'm mentioning you spent 30 mins for 3 sec clip. :) btw. i can relate about over exaggerating talk anim, i feel like every letter should be seen from a mile away if someone speaks

This was EXTREMELY useful. Could we get a informative video about blocking mouth shapes? I see these sheets with AH EE TH/V and i *sorta* understand what it means, but i dont know how to define what shape goes where with audio, i dontr know what timing i need, or how to even start with mouths to avoid posing every sound in the audio. Whats the most and least shapes i would need (not including single flap animations)

@posingmoreposing6030 3 года назад

@yoshiegg6537 3 года назад

I find the fastest way too create lipsync animations is too import your model into unity, use lipsync assets to create animations (lipsync pro gives best results) and then import the created animations into Maya and use it as a starting point. This has dramatically increased the efficiency of my workflow.

@DoctorPhileasFragg 4 года назад

I like a lot of what you say, except for making the mouth act toward the camera. This is what makes the Overwatch movies insufferable - every single sentence ends with a dreamworks face. It's unnatural and takes me out of it. I also gather this results in character designs trending toward smooth, flat, uniform face shapes that lend to it. I notice those examples you showed of Grimmel has his mouth acting *away* from the camera, exposing the silhouettes and better utilizing the medium.

Hey, thank you for the great video. Now I have a reason more to work through the fundamentals. You mentioned in a video about gifts for animators, that you can get Maya Educational. I am not learning at a school or something and during sign up I have to provide an institution. Did something change or doesn‘t Autodesk check it? I‘d really like to use the industry standard to learn and many of the models/rigs you show picked my intrest. Keep up the work!

Thoughts on anime lip-sync? Is it objectively bad or does it work with the style. Personally I agree with the latter.

@doomsdaytuther5095 3 года назад

The only problem I see is the characters tongue colour. I feel that it should be redder or darker with some shadow. Her tongue is the same colour has her skin and it is hard to tell when it is moving. All the other tips are very useful and very much appreciated.
