Esse quam viideri
A lip-sync animation for designer and illustrator Erkki Kiiski, of Suunnittelukiiski. This animation, about the client’s attitude to applied arts versus fine art, was made using drawings of 27 different mouth shapes and a piece of audio provided by the client.
The audio was put on a timeline, then each syllable was then matched, frame by frame, using one of the mouth shapes, to fit the sound of each syllable. A time consuming process, but a very enjoyable and satisfying one.
