Lip Sync Animation – Mixing up lip sync audio, preparing timing for lip syncing.

I made up the rough interum shot for my office robots:

I’m not 100% sure of the layout of this yet, I might make the right hand side photocopier/fax machine robot bigger and take it off of the file stack, and perhaps only have it run a scan once instead of it cutting off during a second scan. It looks a bit odd to me.

I then put it into a prem pro file with my audio and prev. lip sync to get a better idea of timing:

Now I will export all of the separate elements of audio, and begin animating the rough pass following my ‘storyboard’. I can reference this for mouth shapes. I’m intending on animating on a mixture of Rough Animator and Adobe animate, and then I will tidy up in procreate. I also intend on animating these in segments, so that I have room to play around with timing when I bring it into premier pro later.

I will spend this week acting on feedback from Alec after roughs are finished, and then cleaning up the line art. Next week I will colour the animation ready for submission and I will add it to my showreel!

I used the following as reference for the robot segment:
