Facial animation makes your character's inner life shine through. This course—focused on the principles, not the tools, of animation—explores how anatomy, expression, and emotion intertwine, and how animators can simulate emotion in the face of almost any character. George Maestri shows you how to animate three shots, of increasing complexity: a silent "double take" that transitions from one emotion to the next, a simple close-up dialogue shot, and a full-body dialogue shot that accounts for posture and secondary motion.
Topics include:
• Understanding the role asymmetry plays in facial expression
• Conveying basic and mixed emotions
• Planning shots
• Blocking out timing
• Reading dialogue
• Animating lip sync
• Adding blinks and eye movement
