Hi Tomas!

Thank you for the reply. I will use your tips to tweak the effect more! Do you by any idea chance have an idea how the texturize effect exactly works? How is it possible it removes the color of the original texture and only shows the ‘contrasts’ and makes all the rest transparant. I was maybe hoping to replicate this effect without using the texturize effect itself.

@Dave, You are right, the more you zoom the uglier it gets. But at 100% the border still shows.

The options Filip gave work quite nice. It just demands a little more work.

Thanks guys!

Hi Filip!

I was already afraid this was just the insurmountable consequence of Alpha Mattes and using the original layer underneath it. Thank you for the solutions I will try them out! ☺

It’s a shame a function like Add Alpha doesn’t have any purpose here. (With mask + inverted mask Alpha Add works like a charm.)

It’s complex, but I’m happy that there is a way to solve it though. Great you were able to help me, it stuck to me 😉

Thank you Tommy! I was actually already using Joysticks and Sliders (and than the slider-function, for pose to pose animation). But if I don’t want to pass other mouth shapes I stil need to animate each sliders for each mouth pose individually. It’s the way it is , still works very userfriendly.

Thank you guys!

@Dave LaRonde Yes it does get messy, I agree, but I sometimes forget putting keyframes and it messes up the mouth rig even more.

For now I will go with your way @Greg, I already figured that one out. I was just hoping there was a more fast way to do it.

Hi Filip! Great that you explained so clearly. I must say I thought the thing I wanted was way easier (with the ValueAtTime thing, code I still ‘can manage’ ) But this is way more complex than I thought. I was able to pick up most of the code that you just taught me! Thanks for this.

Haha Wauw! Filip! This works like a charm. Amazing work I must say!

I copied and pasted and… it works. Piece of art! Thank you very much Filip! It works very interactive now.

Would you like to explain your code a little? There is a lot of code I have no idea where it references to. Maybe I can learn from it.

just to add an alternative that would also make me happy:

The control slider (just one) should function more or less like a button. Pasting 6 keyframes every time. If it would work like this there would be in-betweens as well. But still the question remains… how can I do it.

Walter:

1) Build your mouth shape such that every pose of the mouth can be created by adjusting the same set of properties. Then we can use valueAtTime to get the value of each property at the outgoing and incoming pose, and have Ae interpolate between them. You’ll have to use the new Master Properties features and some expressions to “push” the pose value into the rigged comp.

This solution seems very close as well, but I’m not sure what the New Master Properties give me for options to make this. I would be grateful if someone could maybe elaborate this solution more. It seems to be the thing I almost had, except this will probably give the in-betweens as well.

Thanks Filip. So I would need 3 sliders. It makes sense what you are telling me! Thanks for this. But I suppose 3 sliders doesn’t give me de ‘fewer housekeeping’ that I was looking for. If this is the only solution, I suppose I have to stick to keyframing 6 sliders.

I was hoping for a very nice and fancy way using only one slider. Would it according to you be possible like this –>

Slider value goes from 1-10

1 till 2 is the same as 100, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 to 0, 100, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0

It seems like it should to me. On the other hand all my tries gave me only absolute frames and no in betweens. Shouldn’t it be possible to create something like this with the linear expression that you are using as well?
