I also put a human face on the animation this time so it doesn't look so bizzare on a piece of toast. I know, I know it doesn't look like him but I just made a quick blank face for it. I might try to refine it later!

Enjoy the song! LOL!

This is pretty good. Thanks for sharing. I really like your ability to add emotion. Do you think you will ever add a body to it?

I agree with Kedric. very well done displaying various emotions!
Your lipsyncing is excellent! Did you use the type in to perfect it or did you separate the voice from the music to get better results?
Thanks guys!

Thanks for the comments guys! I'm not sure what you mean by type in reneuend. I scrubbed through the audio track using the arrow keys and manually picked the mouths I made for each sound. It was a little time consuming but I'm getting pretty fast at it! Is there a way to type words and make a character lip sync??
As far as making a body for this Kedric, I might but I actually only made this to test the lip syncing for a character that has no body for for a game I'm making. It actually looks like this.

After I make this game I'm going to try and make a series of fully rigged, ready to animate characters so I'll keep the forum posted!

Here's the feature I'm talking about. I haven't used it, but it looks interesting.
(edit) I'm curious. What are you using to build the game with? I've been building games with AdventureMaker.
Game salad

I'm actually building my first game in a program called game salad. It's for mac only but to ME, it's really user friendly! Oh and about the lip sync, do you have to make mouths in a specific order for this to work correctly in AS? I'm gonna try it here in a bit and see what it's all about!

Nope. no order..they just have to be in a switch layer.
good luck with your project.
