Welcome to my lip-sync tutorial - it's my first, and straight away, I
have to credit Chris Georgenes for informing me of this method
of speeding up perhaps the most boring job for animators.
This is a little technique for lip synching - this method doesn't
really help you to achieve the correct mouth shapes for sounds;
the aim is to speed up your lip syncing to a level where you don't
feel like you should try to avoid speech on your films.
Also included in this tutorial are a few mouth charts that you may
wish to use, to speed up animating mouths even more.

Main Tutorial

Mouth Chart
Examples

Straight into it then - the best way to start this off is to have your
character's face open on the screen. In a new layer, paste (or
draw) your first mouth (this is generally the closed mouth shape).
Convert this to a symbol, make sure it is a graphic symbol, and
save as something like "mouths".

Edit in Place your new symbol, and create a new blank keyframe
(F7). On this keyframe, draw your second mouth shape. If you
created your graphic over your character's face, you can use this
to ensure the mouth is the correct size and position.

Repeat step 2 for all the individual mouth shapes you need, until
you have every different shape in its own frame on the timeline of
your mouths graphic symbol.

Go back up a level and check that the mouth symbol is in the
correct position. It's easiest to have this symbol on a layer of its
own in the timeline, so you might want to do that now - just Cut,
and Paste In Place on a new layer.

Now we can roll. Add your sound, and set to Stream so that you
can hear the audio as you jump frame by frame. The trick in this
method is the properties that you can control of a graphic symbol.
You will notice that in the properties window, you can select the
frame that the graphic starts on. You can also change whether the
symbol plays through, or holds on that frame. Combining these
two properties, we can make your characters talk perfectly, using
the following techniques.

A lot of the time, the speech is so fast, and the movie so long, that
you can't be bother (and perhaps won't notice) if the mouth
movements don't always match the audio. It's quite acceptable for
you to leave the mouth visemes looping while the character talks.
This is easy now with your graphic symbol. Just set it to Loop, and
play the movie back. You'll find that for some parts, this works
fine. However, it's likely that your audio will involve some held-
sounds, or places of no speech. To do this, we can use the next
technique.

Change the setting of the play of the graphic to Single Frame.
Now, the selected mouth shape will hold until the next keyframe.
This can be used to keep a mouth closed or to extend a sound.
Also, this technique can be used in the same style as standard lip-
sync methods, as explained in the final technique.

This is the standard lip-sync method; listen to the sound, identify
the sound, and find the correct visemes (mouth shape). Now
however, you can quickly change which mouth shape is being
displayed. Note: if you are doing this frame by frame, the play
options don't matter. However, if you're planning to hold a mouth
shape for several frame, make sure this is set to Single Frame.
The general use of this technique is still slow, but faster than a
"swapping symbols" method, and much quicker than copy-paste
methods.

By using a combination of these three techniques, you should be
able to speed up the time it takes you to fix up the lip-syncing for
your characters. Also, it's easy to reuse the same symbols for two
or more characters!
And don't go away thinking this is only for mouths - I'm using this
technique all the time for eyes and eyebrows as well - just click in
the corner to see all the different eye shapes I could think of!
I hope this helps a lot of you out there - for extra aid, check the
menu for a free mouth chart to start you off with a mouth graphic
symbol straight away!

Here's a simple mouth chart - feel free to use
these images.

Click on the heads to play.
The left lip sync has been done using individual key frames; the
right sync was using just a loop of the mouth shapes, with four held
mouths (and was much quicker to create).
