Richard animates his own mouth in sync to a voice-over track! (This is a real mind bender since he is also narrating the tutorial!) He shows you all the steps required to create this popular effect including duplicating, splitting, masking layers, and even designing silly-looking teeth.You’ll also learn how to “spot” the audio track with markers to synchronize the animation to the audio.The next section is all about Replacement Animation with Time Remapping. Here you’ll learn how to easily “swap out” a series of heads with different mouth shapes to create some very cool quick-cut lip-sync animation effects. You’ll also learn how to generate automatic lip-sync with the Split effect using audio keyframes and scripting via “Expressions”—no JavaScript experience required.In the last section, Richard shows you the basics of After Effects’ puppet animation features where you’ll learn to how to create a character in Photoshop, create hinged joint points (or “rigging”) for the character in After Effects, and then animate that character in perfect sync to a soundtrack!
