Animating Masks

Another quick tutorial that answers the question; "How did you animate the mouth changing its shape?".
The answer may be simpler than you would have imagined. Using vector shapes, shape tweens, masks, nesting, graphic symbols and the Frame Picker, you can achieve wonderful things \o/

Yo! There it is! Very interesting. Also informative. Subbed!

Thanks for this! I’ve seen some talking about shape tweens but I never really found a use for them but this is great thanks for this!

[@GeneHamm2]

Thank you. That will give a lot more variety to lip sync.

Do you know how to use ActionScript in animations like people do in After Effects to implement functionality in animations? Where can I find a course that teaches ActionScript for animation in Adobe Animate?

[@keyframer.]

There are hundreds if not thousands of actionscript books. I’d follow Joseph Lebreque as he has written many and just published a new one

I never expected you to work on Home Movies.

I was the original art director and video editor 😊 Very fun time in my career

@@keyframer. What software did you use to animate for Season 1? It doesn't look like it was made in Flash..

[@keyframer.]

@@bajablastman Animator Pro by Autodesk! It ran on DOS. They no longer supported it hence why I had to choose new software. Flash 4 was released and I went with it because it could export to QuickTime

[@bajablastman]

@@keyframer. I remember using DeluxePaint Animation instead of Animator Pro because it was impossible to pirate.
