animating a simple expression
3 months ago
This is the second part of the tutorial, of how i made the character of the widow, in this video i made a simple expresion, is like the same way one use to animate in flash, or animestudio.
first, i select the face, this is the nurb i want to animate. then i press (i) to insert a key, that gonna be a curve.
in the Ipo curve editor, i go to shape, i add another curve key, and in edit mode i change the expression. Out of edit mode i go to action editor, in the editor mode, i select Shapekey editor. i use the slide to add some keys.
the eyebrown animation is very simple, i only add a key for the object curve, to translate to the position i want... same with the eyes.
This is the way i do the expresion, is not so dificult, is the basic step, enyone can do a character with a 2d look and play.
hope you enjoy this short tutorial.
cheers
