Today i got new videos as i could not use the ones i took last time because there was to much head movement. Hopefully i should get most of my animation done today. I filmed the mouth on my own digital camera and loaded it into Final Cut Pro.

Today i made my new masked man because someone destroyed my first one. I filmed james mouth talking on my own digital camera to start putting them on my models but he moved his head to much so i could not use my footage and will have to start again. I noticed the head moved too much when i loaded the videos on to Final Cut Pro and cropped the head so it was only visible to see the mouth, the mouth kept moving out of the line where i had cropped so i knew i had to do it again.

this is the website that helped me on final cut pro to feather the mouths with the models

My Targets
Today i will try and get the mouths for my models by filming a class mates mouth.

i made this character after reading there was a masked man in the script so this will be my masked man i will use that dunks my gingerbread man in the milk















i was going to buy an edible gingerbread man but i could not find one small enough so i made my own with gum drop buttons and red eyes

today i tried to find out to make the real mouth and put them on my models i made, i found out how to do this on this website.
