ABSTRACT

Animator upload his/her audio track into the program, it arranges the track vertically down an on-screen exposure sheet, then he/she select shapes from the "mouth set" icons provided to match the sounds he/she hear during continuous or frame-by-frame audio playback. If an animator are using dialog, or if his/her action tightly synchronizes with his/her audio track, he/she will need to do an audio breakdown first. Although the author personally can't wait to get to the animation part of one of his productions, probably just like he/she, he enjoy analyzing the audio track and working out what sound drops link to what frame he will be animating on to. To use Magpie Pro is simplicity itself. If animator are a three-dimensional animator, he/she will also be pleased to know that he/she can create modeled mouth sets into Magpie Pro in order to test them.
