Hyper Real Facial Setup Demonstration
Hyper Real Facial Setup Demonstration from Puppeteer Lounge on Vimeo.
Here is a quick video demonstration showcasing
the facial rig that I created and taught to students for Puppeteer Lounge’s Hyper Real Facial Setup training
workshop. The rig features a combination of musculo-skeletal
deformation and corrective shapes. You can also see the rig being
driven by the facial motion capture performance which is covered in
Puppeteer Lounge’s Facial Motion Capture Setup workshop.

ZV Radial Blend Shape 3.0 – Eyelid deformer for Maya

Looks like a very useful tool for a quick eye setup. ZV Radial Blend Shape by Paolo Dominici.
I have been experimenting with this tool and I have to say, it is pretty
cool. I will try to implement this into some of my facial rigging stuff. Let’s see how it goes! With
radial, the linear interpolation of blendshapes from point A to B is
converted into a arc which is crucial to facial deformation.
