			<description><![CDATA[[quote=Aaron Glazer]and just because he uses different techniques doesn't mean he's overrated :/[/quote]
The reason for that is, that's not what overrated means.

I'd make a new comp and put together the facial animation, then bring it into the footage and wrap it onto the face.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I agree, Aaron. Yes, ForrestFire [i]was[/i] overrated, but, he's proven that he is capable of good stories to me a couple times already.

Anyways, yes, tips? KG? Ratboy? Smeagol? :(]]></description>

Please, Do not Mention the 'F' Person here.
He is the most overrated 'Brickfilmer' (If you even can call him that).

Anyways, I know I will have to rotoscope, I just don't want to do as much KG did. It seemed a bit excessive, although, I will rotoscope as much as I need to, if that is the only way possible :|]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Okay, so, lately I've noticed moving minifigure's arms around to simulate "Talking" action, looks a bit too odd for my liking, let alone it not being very original. So, now I want to make all of my future videos a mix of arm movements, [i]and[/i] facial/mouth animation. As you all know, I recently obtained Adobe After Effects (*Brag :P *), and would like to learn how to do facial animation with that. But, I've searched the forums, and google, and could not find a tutorial. So, I come to you guys, on a hopeful tutorial. I've tried the puppet tool, but that looks really strange, and, I don't want to do it frame by frame necessarily (I will if I must), so, is there anyway I can do minimal animation, and still get a nice result?

(By the way, I know about glue face and Papagayo, but, those seem to not work on my computer :/ )

I have a couple examples of Mouth Animation I would like to try to get the same result as.

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MR1ENvoPGes]KG's "There Will Be Bricks"[/url]
[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USYvQrtTjQA&feature=related]Smeagol's "Lost Clip"[/url]
and [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1ieLNPz2RA]RatBoy's Test[/url]

Thanks for reading guys. Any help or tips would be great ;)]]></description>
