The Mixer

[marci2001]

Mixing is controlled by the weight parameters (shown at the end of the tracks)

If your lost, create a shapetrack containing the haed without any facial expressions.

Create as many tracks, as many expression elements do you have

Set the mixing properties (additivity: summoning or interpolating the shapedeformations)

At every keyframe set and key the shape weights.

(for example:

you have three shapes:
S1 : relaxed face
S2 : opened mouth
S3 : closed eyes

S1 (weight=1) + S2 (weight=1) + S3(weight=1) => a face with opened mouth and closed eyes

S1 (weight=1) + S2 (weight=0.5) + S3(weight=1) => a face with halfly opened mouth and fully closed eyes)
