Animation study

Our animator Kelly Rodak is exploring lip sync animation and the mouth shapes she'll need! Here's a chart of visemes that are stylized in a way she thinks she would want for animating some characters. By exploring the needs for exaggerated shapes, we can better create a face rig for her that will meet her animation needs!

Below is a video of experimentation with lip sync. The character is 3D, but the experiment is just for Kelly to study what she needs for lip syncing since she has never done it before. She was having technical issues with Maya changing her timeline settings from 24 frames to 30 frames, so the timing might be a little off. We have to figure out what's causing these technical difficulties!
