Expressions

[SublimeOne]

After creating our expressions in the expression editor, is it possible to go back and tweak some blendshapes?

[SublimeOne]

Also, with the empty nodes that it creates after making a nurbs circle or square, do we delete these?

[SublimeOne]

Hehe, got another one...are we supposed to parent our Nurbs controllers to the head?

Yep. The blendshape connection is set already, so you can go back and tweak the blendshapes.

that has to do with what you're showing in your outliner. Make sure you're showing DAG Objects only and a lot of that will clean up.

You can.

Prof. Watkins or anyone who knows this, are we supposed to make a child of the expressions to the head joint to maintain its position while we animate?

[Professor Watkins]

You certainly can.

Ok, I tried grouping my expressions before I was going to place them as children of the corn....I mean, head and everything funked up. What is the correct way to do this?

Nvrm, I figured it out
