    Process of Lip Sync in animation includes:

    a. Dialogue
    b. Mouth Charts
    c. Things to Remember

    Dialogue:
    • This process starts with recording the dialogue first, using a sound recorder.
    • After analyzing, it is broken down into individual phonetic syllables.
    • The numbers of frames required for each syllable is counted and written down in the exposure sheet.

    Mouth Charts:
    Then mouth shapes are drawn according to the phonetic syllable.
    For example: Closed mouth to the wide-open mouth.







    Animators usually refer to their own mouth shapes and expressions, using a mirror.

    Things to Remember:
    • While animating a dialogue, pay attention to the sound they make and not the individual letters.
    • Assign mouth shapes according to the phonetic vocals otherwise the animation will have a chattering effect.
