Hi @waylow No problem. I forgot to tag you anyway. (maybe not working in here for me anyway!?) Thanks for taking the time to record again.
I actually did look up lip-reading tutorials and I guess I could understand about 60% or so of what you said in the last video.
Hand gestures helped a lot as well. Although some mention of “hamburger” made me question my attempt. Besides making
me hungry I guess it made sense after thinking about it.
I created a pacman head from a uv sphere and put the dolly camera inside of it. Added two bones to help close the mouth/eyelids
with the bottom bone copying the top and set the influence to a lower value to make the top close more. But since you said it would
look strange on camera I’ll go back and change it later.
I was trying to think of an animated movie that shows the character like this with closing eyelids. I know I have seen at least one
this year but can’t for the life of me remember which one. I only remember the character was breathing heavily like he was about
to pass out, eyelids getting heavier starting to close. Perhaps it was one of the Kungfu Panda movies. I’ll go and check it later.
If you can think of any or come across one later, feel free to let me know if you still remember. 🙂
