Hey everyone, going to add this comment for frequently asked questions. I will continue to add to this as needed.
Q: I don't see the auto lip sync button.
A: You will a recent edition of Adobe Animate. This feature was added to the 2020 version of the program.
Q: I can't hear the audio on the main timeline.
A: You will often need to place the audio both in the imbedded timeline AND the main timeline in order to hear it while animating between the different timelines.
Q: Can this work with different sets of mouths?
A: Yes, one way you can achieve this would be to have each mouth set on it's own layer all being synced to the same audio layer. Once they all have interpreted to the audio you could simply delete the keyframes of the set you don't want visible during that part of the VO.
Q: Can I have multiple characters in the scene with lip sync?
A: Yes, if your characters are all inside their own symbols you can place the separated audio track inside those for each character. I would recommend using an audio program like Adobe Audition to mix down each characters separate audio, then a master mix of all the characters. The separate audio for each character would be placed inside that characters symbol, and the master mix audio would be placed on the main timeline, so you can preview while you're animating.
Hey Is There Any Plugin Or Preset Or Method Like This In After Effects?
Please Answer
Hello chitchad , why during lip sync , another body parts that i animate them dont move when i test
I have 2021 version of adobe animate and I can't see the lyp sinc section!
Are you able to do an animation lip sync for me ?
Hello can I create this using cellphone only
Great tutorial. I've been working with animate/flash since the early 2000s and have been synching mouths by ear and never got around to learning to do it automatically. You still need to tweak a few things on your own to get the perfect lip synch but this method makes things so much easier and saves so much time!!!!
Glad this helped! I also go back and modify the automated lip sync as it doesn't always match the VO, but having most of the visemes already keframed is such a fantastic starting point that saves so much time!

AAAAA thank you so much!!! Wish this got pinned or added somewhere
I've always just done it manually. It was so time consuming but I can definatly use this to speed things up a bit. Thank you so much
Great video Chad, not sure that I’ll ever use this info since I don’t really animate stuff but it was still very informative. Also it was really cool to see cartoon Chad in all his glory. I’m glad you are uploading videos to the main channel again. Keep up the phenomenal work.
Thanks for checking it out! Hopefully I can make these tutorials entertaining to watch even if people aren't interested in being animators. I appreciate your support!
This tutorial is great. You seem like a guy who should have 1 million subscribers. Its hard to see someone this professional at this amount of subscribers.
I appreciate the kind words and support!
Just used this for my finals project along with other things and got a 100.. Appreciate it man
Congrats on the finals project! 👏
What school do you go to for this ?
@@Realinktoons Of course Chit Chad school
Outstanding tutorial. Very simple and clear instructions....great voice too. I'm subscribing!
Wish I could like this video 7 times for the 7 times I've followed this tutorial and it's helped me do exactly what I hope to do! Big ups!
Thank you so much! I was about to legit cry because a vision I had for a lyric video required lips in specific anime style to lip sync and I had no idea how to tackle it. With this video I was able to get it all done! Appreciate you!
Wow, thankyou very much for the help. Hope your channel prosper!
Come back please... You are a Great Teacher and it's not easy to find a Great Teacher. And thank you very much for being such a wonderful teacher who truly helped us to understanding things easily!
Thank you so much for the tutorial! I used to draw the lip sync manually every single frame and it would take a long time😅, but this is a real time-saver and looks just as good.
Thank you so much for this, this made my assignment so much clearer.

You are my new legend
Superb ♥️🔥
thanks for it...
Thanks for your video, it's really helpful
Glad it was helpful!
I am a super beginner just started 2 days ago and these tutorials are great if you have at least a moderate level of understanding ~ I can not figure out how to just properly import the Lip Sync file into Adobe Animate. I get it I have worked with Illustrator for 30 years and I do the same thing when trying to explain AI to people. Anyway, I will bookmark it and see if I can find another tutorial that starts at the absolute beginning.
Nice tutorial! 👍 Yes, regular lip-syncing is very tedious, especially when you have long animations or multiple characters as I do in many of my animations. I've been using Flash since 2006. Adobe has come a long way. Question. What if there are multiple characters in a scene? How does this automated lip-sync method work?
If your characters are all inside their own symbols you can place the separated audio track inside those for each character. I would recommend spacing out the audio in something like Audition so the speaking lines have the necessary gaps as not to have the characters overlap each others audio. If the audio doesn't come through outside those characters symbols you could make another audio file that has all speaking lines in one track on the main timeline, that way you could still hear the audio without it affecting any of the characters. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!
@@Chitchadshow Thanks, Chad! I appreciate it!👍
Happy to help!
@@Chitchadshow o
Sorry, mistyped

Thanks for checking out the channel!
thanks bro! subbed
Thanks for the sub!
Hello, Good way for illustration, have a question: which software can make auto lip sync easy with camera? thanks
Oh, nice!
I feel you!
Can you make a course or dedicated playlist for this character's full animation?
Wow....Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Thanks ^^
Superb bro
Hi, Thank you very much for this great tutorial. One thing you did not cover that is "JAW" animation with lip sync. Can you please make a tutorial on Jaw animation with lip sync. Thanks again!
ChitChad, can we use photoshop characters distributed in layers for animating in animate cc? Or just ones from Adobe illustrate?
I am confused a lot regarding same and I don't understand what difference it makes (in working) other than the raster and vector difference.. Please teach the photoshop character animation in animate cc if possible. Thank You 🙏
You r better than all in it do more do walk cycle etc
I've used Adobe Animate CC while studing for Bachelor of Science (BSC) in Animation&VFX course in a university in Bangalore for 3 years. I found the lip-sync of seagull too in this same software. If you couldn't have shared every Animate Tutorial with us, then we might have forgotten it.
Tq for teaching
thanks a lot, keep it up
Thank you
Thank you! :)
You're welcome!
This is awesome! I feel like this is obtainable for my skill level. Thank you! Do you know if it will be ditto incorporate hand drawn art to trace and for backgrounds?
omg . thank you sooooooo mach
Please give me advice, can I make synced lips like that and put it over the slightly animated character (insert the video file in Adobe Animate)? Or I should export the synced lips somehow and put it over the animation in after effects?
Thank you for your useful video! ❤
fantastic. Hopefully adobe can improve this system
Great tutorial thank you, do you think that it will work on something i took a picture of ? for exemple if i took a pic of a teddy bear, will it work on him ?
Thanks Chad :)
Thanks for watching!
Hey I have a question, in the part where your making each mouths shape its own keyframe, instead of using add keyframe, can we cut add blank keyframe and then paste to blank keyframe or would that not work, thanks
I was wondering this as well
I genuinely hope you reply to this ASAP, for some reason my visemes will cover all images in the lip sync window depending on which is selected.
Example: If I select the neutral mouth in it's frame, only neutral mouths will cover all options in the lip sync window, same goes for each viseme.
Any advice?
cool
Thank you so much, you are the best, how do I know where to add the frame to show the sound file? If it were say 3 minutes and 30 seconds, what frame number would I pick? So sorry u-u how many frames per second did you use?
Also, did you just add the rest of the body layer underneath it?
Hopefully this will be seen and answered. Haha! Is there a way to lock the mouth to a specific object, so if it moves or scales, they will too? Couldn't figure out what to search to find a video for that.
Is there a way to automate expressions? Such as eyes and eye brows?
i like lip syncing by hand because it looks smoother
Hello ChitChad, I have a question about automatic lip sync. I have seen tutorials so far (including yours), that it looks like the mouth only moves in a still head, but then when I try to animate the head and mouth together in a puppet rig, the mouth stops moving or the head moves but the mouth stops talking/doesn't move. How can I animate the head moving while the mouth lipsync moves along with the head in a puppet rig? Do I have to actually create head symbols with the mouth and then connect the head to the neck in the puppet rig in Adobe Animate? I want to do it like how you did it in the ending of the video, where the lip sync MOVES with the head. Or did you use Character Animator for the combining the head and lip sync together? I wish you included this important step in your video for moving heads and lipsyncs. Many thanks for your help if you reply!
Hi there, without seeing how your character rig is set up I am not 100% sure this will be helpful but I shall try my best.
First, yes! - all the character animation in this video was done inside of Adobe Animate. For example, the character I created uses a parenting link from the automated lip sync graphic to the main head graphic. When I apply a classic tween to the head graphic the mouth graphic will then move along with it because it's parented to the head. I would recommend processing the automated lip sync keyframes before applying any animation to the character and make sure each of those symbols (mouth, head, body, ect) are on their own layers.
Also, the reason I didn't include rigging as part of this video is because that's a much larger concept with a number of different factors depending on style of animation and character design. It would not necessarily apply to everyone who uses this lip sync technique as it can be utilized both inside Adobe Animate as well as outside of it with programs like Character Animator, After Effects, ect.
I hope this has been helpful and wish you luck with your animation project!
@@Chitchadshow Thank you so much for your response ChitChad! I will follow your parenting trick advice in the comment. How I set up my character rig is by connecting the body parts to the joint in the layers, head to neck, neck to body, hip to legs, etc.
I created a character by following this video, "How to rig a simple character" by TipTut. Link: th-cam.com/video/EetloQGJ2yM/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for letting me know about the rigging process, I'd love to see your video on rigging, your video on setting up the lip syncing is clear and helpful! I would love to learn other methods of rigging in Adobe Animate or Character Animate.
Again, thank you for the reply and your advice, it really helps a lot and your animation is awesome! Have a lovely night/day, ChitChad! :D
How do you animate the jaw along with the mouth?
When he converts to symbol, the type is not set to Graphic by default, so you have to make sure to set it as Graphic or else Lip Sync wont be an option in the object properties!
Hi, thank you very much for that. Can you please tell me how much would you charge per minute? I started doing this for someone and I wanted to know how much would a professional like yourself charge a customer for one minute of manual lip sync(without animation of the body, only lips). If you can give me an estimate, it would help me a lot, thank you very much.
Can you make a video about how to animate the hands and arms and correct layering of them? Because I can't find information about it, I mean with a simple character for example an animal, that their arms are only one layer, how I do for them to be behind the body but at the same time the character touch their face?
I will actually be covering this on a future video! There's a few ways you can do it, one of which has a similar process to the lip sync - where you create all the different variations inside of a graphic.
@@Chitchadshow okay thank you! :D
Can you do this in after effects as well?
Gold.
Thanks for watching!
Hey Is There Any Plugin Or Preset Or Method Like This In After Effects?
Please Answer
CAN I DO THIS FOR MULTI CHATACTER and will it also work for moving characters
Is there any way to save the lip sync so I can use it for a different scene?
How does auto lip sync work with different mouth sets which use the same sounds (Happy Ah verses Sad ‘Ah’.) How do I go between the different expressions?
One way you could achieve that would be to have each mouth set on it's own layer all being synced to the same audio layer. Once they all have interpreted the audio you could simply delete the keyframes of the set you don't want visible during that part of the VO.
Osum
How could I save this layer, lip synce, for further use in other scence
is there a way to do that in adobe after affects?
SUBBED
Thanks!
is there a way to make it smoothy transition or shape-tween between each of these mouth shapes? ive seen it done in the early episodes of BFDI and CaryKH's channel and i like the effect, if not i can just make my own intermediate mouths
edit: they also do it in family guy but i dont know if they use animate
the way they do lip syncing in BFDI is super tedious, especially for those first few episodes where they classic tween it all, and yeah I don't really think you can do that automatically
Thanks, I feel more confident giving this an attempt now! :)
P.S. I think they're probably pronounced "vi"-"zemes" like after "pho"-"nemes"..?
Is it possible to create automatic lip sync in after effects?
i have adobe animate 2021 v21.0.7.42652 but the rest of the visemes don't appear in frame picker. just one symbol. what's going on?
Thanks a lot!
where's the 'Th' mouth pose
