If you come to watch a stupid animation, you are in the right place!
Warning it's stupid...you've been warned
About this animation: I made this animation for fun to try and work with lip syncing better and figure out if it's more efficient to do smart bones or actions when lip syncing. Definitely easier with actions. But I just like the way things look with smart bones. Showed it to my girl friend she thought it was funny but random so she told me to upload it to youtube, so....here it is.
Let me know what you think?
Thanks!

The animation is pretty good, but, I wouldn't call it stupid. It discourages regular folk from wanting to see it.

It was funny and well put together. It made no sense, but you did warn us of that...

Thanks eric1223! It surprisingly has a lot more views because I called it stupid haha. I honestly don't like it though so I think it's well...uh...not liked by me. It was just a test animation. If you have a title for it let me know, I just didn't want to scare/offend other animators looking for a smiley happy guy.
Thanks for your feedback!

Thanks undiscovered! I got another one coming! I forgot to mention about lip syncing... I personally prefer using smart bones, it's time consuming but I get a lot more face shapes and emotion when using it. If you are looking for something more efficient (not as time consuming) use actions you can still have lots of movement in actions and then when you are ready to lip sync you can have all your actions/phonemes ready (I will probably do a tutorial on it), but most importantly try them both or come up with your own style!
Thanks again. I hope to have my other one ready today
