LIP SYNC Animation Tutorial 

woah hi crumb

Hello Cuptoast 😸 Thank you, I am glad you like it! 👍

@@zozzle3498 Dear Zoozle 😃 So pleased to meet you... I love your channel! 👍👍👍

Crumbbb :D

crumb! :D

Hello Strawberry Toad 😃 You totally got the point! 😉👍

Hello Meli 😃 Yes you are right... I'd say Squash and Stretch is more of a philosophy than a technique, a way of thinking.😊

Thank you, I will! 👍 Ahah 😃 Yes.... do you recognize the dialogue by the way?

@@PixiGags unfortunately i don't. But the voice is very interesting

@@jessijcrazy6039 ​ It's Gary Oldman, from "Leon" 🙂

🙂

😂 He is actually just pretending... does anybody remember where this dialogue is from? 😀 Ok...It's Gary Oldman, the crooked lawyer from "Leon" 😉

@@PixiGags cool!

0:40 Aquí se ve claramente.

Hello Katie! :D Thank you so much for the appreciation!!

Thank you Favency 😃 I really appreciate it! I also prefer straight to the point lessons! 👍

Thank you GS 2007 😊 This really keeps me going! 👍

Animatiors never get "famous"; it's all about respect among peers!

@@tahsinozgur8694 Hellooo Tash!!! So nice to see you here! 🥰 Let's say that sometimes Animators get popular among other Animators 😄

@@PixiGags It's the nature of the job, and I like it that way!

Hello CC 😃 So nice of you to say that, I really appreciate it! 🙏⭐

@@PixiGags No problem!

Dear Paleo 😀 Thank you for letting me know how you feel about all those topics. I agree about the mouth shapes 👍 It's better and clearer to use a few good ones! 😊

Dear Orlattae 😀 Thank you for the kind words! ♥ I am so happy you like both the videos and the channel. What you say gives me the strength to keep going! 😊👍

Cool! 👍 That sounds great! 😄

My pleasure! 😊

Hi Sonia, I really appreciate your comment! Your insights on animated lip sync are spot on. I agree that emphasizing body and head actions while simplifying mouth movements to create interesting shapes is key. This approach not only enhances visual appeal but also facilitates smooth translation into different languages.

😊😀Glad to hear UN!

Thank you Kitcat! I am glad you like it 😊

😊

So glad I could help you EG! 😊😊😊

Thank you so much Yuki! 😺😸 I am in the zone at the moment and I am making tutorials every day! 😊

Thanks so much, @StratusTheSkywing! I'm glad you appreciate this animation. It's one of the earliest videos I made for this channel. All the best! 💖✌

@@PixiGagsOf course! It still looks incredible! So, I’m really bad at animating and lip syncing. All my animations end up looking like doo-doo, and it doesn’t really *look* like it’s intended to say something specific. Do you have any advice or any animation apps you recommend? ‘Cause I’m honestly really jealous of how you animate, thought your tutorial did help me to make it look a bit better, I just feel like I’m doing something wrong

It's my pleasure MoBitz!! :D

Happy to help Holly!

@@PixiGags YOU DID?!- THATS IT YOU NEED 1M SUBS

@@cann3db3anzz33 You are so kind! 😊

@@PixiGags I can’t believe you worked on Balto 0-0 that movie is literally my favorite-

@@cann3db3anzz33 Dear StL 😃 I agree with you, Balto is a wonderful animated film! 😊👍

It's my pleasure Zed! :D I am glad you find it helpful.

Ciao Nicola, Grazie mi fa molto piacere! 😃

Thank you Jonathan! 🥰

Hello Juno! 😀 Let's say I am in the Zone! 😊

😄

Thank you Yumequeen! 😺😸

So glad to hear that Zan!! :D

Thank you Karin! 🙏

Hello Gracie, I am glad you will!

I do too!! Chopin sometimes! 😊✨

Thank you Gangana! 😀🙏

Yes, exactly George! You're absolutely right. In good character animation, the character should convey the lines convincingly, even without the presence of a visible mouth. Thanks for sharing your insight, and wishing you all the best! ✨

You are welcome Bleu! 🙂😊 I am glad this tutorial can help!

@@PixiGags thank you! It will (:😑😙😊😚

@@PixiGags your wc! Also. I typo cute into call 😂😂

Thanks Ivy! It's my pleasure. 💖☘

I'm glad to hear the video helped you improve your lip sync, even if it's just sort of there! Sometimes, getting those small improvements can be a huge relief after struggling for so long. Keep up the hard work, and don't hesitate to reach out if you need further assistance or tips.

😅😅😅 🥰

@@PixiGags it was funny. Also u are so good I’m not as good as u

@@zorbzorbIHATEYOU I am sure you are really good! :D if you feel like you have a hard time with it, just animate with stick figures and stick to doing it...it will come! :D :D

@@PixiGags I would say I’m average, my Kahoot meme shows that I guess

Yes dear Derpy :D sometimes phrasing can fit different words!

😀✨

👍

Cool, I hope it helped!! :D

😊

Yes Snowy Cat, the character has some funny expressions! 😊

:D

@@PixiGags lol

Mozart rocks! :D

Hello Lauren 😀 Thank you, I am glad you like the Tutorials! 😊🙏 About Squash and Stretch, there are different beliefs and I think you should use the one that fits your style best ( I'd say if you are making a Drama you may want to avoid S&S, but if you are in the Comedy Zone you can go quite far)...I advice to try them all. You can be very subtle and use NO Squash and Stretch (look at my Tutorial "Lip Sync for Acting), or you can use the "realistic" Squash and Stretch (the one you mention), or you can be 100% in the cartoony zone and use full deformation, but be careful not to make the character look gummy. This type of deformations should be used just for a few frames or so, to cover a big distance between 2 Keys (look at the Genie in Disney Aladdin-1992).Regarding the Cats in my tutorials, there is a skull, but is very much IN 😁 They are very fluffy cats, with a lot of fur outside, so in many cases the shape deformations is due the Drag and Follow Trough of the fur. 🙂 I hope this helps, you are welcome to share your thoughts if you want! ⭐

@@PixiGags Brilliant, thank you so much Pixi!! Your tutorials are full of nuggets of wisdom, you are an amazing animator 😊

Hello RD, yes I do.. in the meanwhile these are dragons dialogue tutorials I have already done: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UqfoAE0kVyw.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-m59Yyw_kxC4.html

A lot! :D

@@PixiGags yep

Hello Swaggy 😃 Yes the Soft Fuzzy Man has a different design.

Hello Nick! I actually animated lots of Lego, here are some reference: vimeo.com/287312837 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GNc8DQbxxow.html There is also a Playmobil example, but the mouth works with the same principle: vimeo.com/592810086

@@PixiGags oh nice I just checked those out, those are impressive CG Lego animations, but I was talking about for Stopmotions with Physical lego

He does!! 😅

It's from "Leon", the movie!

Thank you sooo much Kiddo! :D You are so kind, I really appreciate it!!! 😊❤

@@PixiGags your very welcome!

😄

Indeed!!! 😃🙂🌼 They are fantastic Nadine!!!

That's a great idea Kitchenfox!!! :D I am sure everybody will appreciate your tip!!!

@@PixiGags Thanks!

Hello W! 😊😀 25 fps

Dear Wallk, thank you for the interesting question! You can definitely experiment with it. Personally, I would retain from animating phonetic lip-sync showcasing all the spoken letters; the best way is to animate the body anticipating the dialogue (that can be done with broad, subtle, or even minimalistic movement) and then favoring the most prominent and best looking mouth shapes for the lip-sync. When drawing the mouth, remember to articulate jaw, teeth, tongue and lips.

Thanks! This really helps!

Hello Oddity! It's from the film "Leon the professional", a Gary Oldman line!

Hello Moonart, I usually use TVPaint!

@@PixiGags oooooo ok thank u so much

You are so kind, thank you! 😃👍

Hello Leafy :D thank you for stopping by!

Hello Phoenix! :D What's with that image?
