NOTES:

Get comfy with changing speeds of these ANIBLOCKS often in order to match realism and to match your character/scene. Many of the speech patterns are modeled slow to get the most out of each transition. Most work best between 150-250% speeds.

* The folder marked ‘SPEECH+BODY-MOVEMENT - ANIBLOCKS are to be SLOWED DOWN to 50-60%, they work well paired with head and body movements on top of the defaults.

* You’ll need to learn to love ‘overrides’ - double click on a sub track and choose what you want to override what (i.e. phone conversation with one hand/arm, and ‘ARM-MOVEMENT-1’ applied to the other arm.

* I left the bottom part of the figure alone so there are no defaults :). You can make your characters sit and talk, walk and talk, position them at a table/bar, whatever.

* Usually 2-3 layers will be enough, 4-5 and you’re probable achieving some amazing results pairing it with your audio.

* Lipsync done easy: Line up your audio as an ANIBLOCK (right click on a sub-track timeline lane, “ADD AUDIO BLOCK”, now start lining up the animation with your audio. There are ‘STOP-TALKING’ blocks and you can easily just ‘split’ any ANIBLOCK in order to make them breathe, or let the other character talk while this one just reacts using the expressions and body movements. Cherry picking a line up of face shape transitions to match what your audio says is surprisingly easier than I thought it would be.

* Multi-character setups are fun and easy, pulling out single poses is also very easy, even compared to just using ‘poses’.. Imagine you could FAST-Forward or BACKward in any of the poses you’ve bought over the years, well now you can create your own from scratch and pull a frame from anything cool you make.

* This is a SPEECH SALAD, so everything will be original every-time as you layer the blocks into your own salad and spin them with the dressing of your choice in speeds, loops, changes, etc. Line up a question, answer, reaction in less than a few minutes and render away!

Enjoy!
