Lip Sync For Side views?

Post by sillyanimate »

Any advice for doing a lip sync for 3/4 (front and back)and side views?

The front view is easiest sadly the others not so much
I am using Anime Studio Pro 9

Hi mate,

I see no difference in side-view vs front view ... the process is the same in my opinion ... correct me if I'm wrong ?
If you say front view is easy then why not use the same technique for your side view or 3/4 view.

Just use different poses for each mouth position and 'switch' between them like in the video below :

Note that in the example no masking is used in the side view ... masking is only used in the front view mouth.



If you want a smooth transition from front to side then it's a different story I guess ...
There's some movies out there on how to make head turns and open mouths ... an example would be this :



Hope this helps,
-K.
