  • Facial morph animation in motion 3?

    Posted by Mark Suszko on June 9, 2010 at 5:03 pm

    I have a project in development that calls for some facial morph animation, to make an inanimate object seem to talk. What would fit the bill is Crazy Talk, but that’s a PC-only product. I’m wondering if there is some way to do convincing but uncomplicated facial morphing animations like that in Motion 3? I have done this kind of thing before in a South Park/ cut-paper style using keyframed timelines of independent mouth shapes, keyed over a blank face. And I was doing the Clutch Cargo Synchrovox thing way before Conan did… but this time I’m looking for something a little smoother and rendered-looking, more like real morphing work.

    I’m trying, as always, to execute these things without the purchase of any additional software or hardware.

    Any suggestions?
