Pick whip layers, to have same movement and stay as separate layers
Morning all,
As part of my animation, there are area’s where my characters are dancing, by dance I mean, first they lift left leg then they lift their right leg, as we call it back home, a regular knees up mother Brown.
What I am looking for is an expression, one that will allow me to pick whip into the other layer i.e. arms, head, chest and mouth etc to create a slight but co-ordinated jerk in these parts in concert with each other.
Tks and have a great day

What do you mean by “create a slight but co-ordinated jerk”?

Hi Dan, if I create a left knee up, left knee down, right knee up, right knee down on and on etc. This looks, at least to me that it’s just the legs moving up and down. Now, if when the knee goes up to it’s highest point the rest of the body jerks up a little I find it give the impression that the whole body is in motion.
The problem is it’s a little more complicated, there are places where the arms go up and clap above the head as well as lip movements (using that sync expression you gave me last week)
I think I’m going to have to work this one out with a combo of looping, pre-comp and lip syncing.
I should have thought this threw before dropping this thread.
Tks anyway mate
Just for the knowledge, let’s say the lip sync expression, can one pick whip more than one layer at a time??

No, you have to do each one separately.
