I took a break from building models and decided to start learning about poses and facial animation. Here a link to 4 very small clips. I have no way of assembling them. It is getting easier each every as some things become familiar.

 

Questions:

 

a) If I attach these heads to their respective bodies will they remember the poses?

B) Is it better to import the body into the head file or vice versa?

c) If I rig the faces and them import them onto a rigged body, can I combine the rigs by moving the bone files intot hte proper hierachy?

 

thanks,

Gaetan

You're really coming on. Looks like Jason O's examples.

 

a) Yes. Obviously don't add/subtract cps unless really necessary.

b ) I'd bring the less complex piece into the more complex one.

c) Putting the facial bones into a body heirarchy won't change how they move or the sliders controling them.

Thanks for answering the questions.

 

I thought that those would be the answers but it never hurts to check before creating your very own private disaster :-)

 

It is a bit of a slog learning to understand this program but then I try to remember how much of a slog it was to learn all those other programs I've ever had to learn.

 

 

Who is Jason O?

Jason Ospia(?)....the guy who wrote "Stop staring"

 

He has some Lip Synch examples on AM Films.

My ignorance is only superseded by my enthusiasm! :P

 

I'll go over and check out the tutorials on Lipsynching. I'll probably start experimenting with that part of the program next month.

 

Like Dr. Frankenshteen, I've got some sewing to do!

 

Thanks again!

Wow Frankenshteen,

 

I haven't heard that one since Young Frankenstein.

 

LOL
