[John Howard's Knees - facial animation test](http://vimeo.com/16830188?ref=nakedfella.com) from [David Blumenstein](http://vimeo.com/user2632206?ref=nakedfella.com) on [Vimeo](http://vimeo.com/?ref=nakedfella.com).

A short facial animation test for *John Howard's Knees*!

I've gone through a few different designs for Howard; this one is the simplest, but I wasn't sure if it would work with the voice.

I built a set of standard "sad" mouths for him (11), then animated some lipsync to this bit of wibbling we recorded, finding out as I did what extra mouths (the sketched red ones) need to be added to the set to make the lipsync look better.

I think it looks OK. What do you reckon?
