They're Eating Her

This project examined lip-synching a character to a pre-made audio clip.

Unfortunately the head is a little small in this, hopefully I can fix that soon.

I decided to go with one of the example character heads and mouth-charts. This was because I felt the character looked dorky enough to match the character from Trolls II that I ripped the audio from. I picked this audio clip from Trolls II, not because there were enough pauses in dialogue to make the assignment easier, but because I wanted to make the character more expressive than the actor in the movie. Seeing as how Trolls II is a B-rated movie, this wasn't too difficult to accomplish. For the next assignment we will be making a full scene with this same audio clip/head. I plan on making him blink and look around more, coupled with some key poses to make him more life-like.
