Hello all

Still on the path to learn animation in ASP and what best character then Homer Simpson to practice lip syncing, so here is my first test.

I'm still new myself, so can't give you expert feedback but from an untrained (viewers) eye. It looked quite good. Although the head turn looked a bit off, like it was from an earlier Simpsons episode.

Yeah, actually it is very basic animation from only one drawing. I used only layer animation with a tiny bit of point motion on the brow.

It would be smoother with a front view of he character.

Took around 10 minutes to animate, still not too bad for a quickie.

Thanks for your input, I might make a front vue, will see!

You need more mouth layers, because the sync to me doesn't quite match up.

Yeah, only 4 or 5 phonemes at the time.

Working on the story for my project this weekend, might work more on it Monday. Thanks for your input!

Thanks kkrawal

Like I said, my first real lip sync in AS Pro, and like I said it has only a few phonemes.

I wanted to see how well I could do with a very basic setup, 5 phonemes and one drawing and it turned out okay, AS Pro rocks!!!

Thanks again mate!

I was under the impression you were some sort of ASP whizz!

Na, I am an enthusiast newbie at AS Pro.

Planning a commercial project with it, discarded Toonboom Animate in favor of AS Pro.

Heheh, that quite a few words there, thanks!

Was actually real easy, made this after a post from someonelse and the whole thing took an hour or two. AS Pro makes those real easy!

Here is the anme file with soundtrack if you want to have a look, ASP 6.1 format.
