How to create different phoneme images for singing faces?
« on: August 17, 2016, 04:37:36 PM »
What program does everyone use to create the 10 different phoneme images for their singing faces? I'm trying to create the different mouth movements for the Grinch but would like to know if there is a easy way to do this.  I'm a horrible artist and not having much luck using Paint to draw/manipulate an image with the 10 different phoneme's... 

Thanks!!

Just google search "Phoneme mouth animation" you'll get all the images you need for reference.

Do not ask to know all the answers, but ask to understand the question.

Thanks Steve.  I have the 10 mouth movements but thanks.  I grab an image of say the Grinch, then paste one of the movements over that image, clean it up and color it in (since the Grinch is green).  I've attached what I did but just looks funny to me - was hoping there was an easier way that looks better.

There's no easy way to be an artist.

I use Photoshop.  If you send me the image and the mouths I will do it for you.  PM me for my email address.
