Question

Mouth and Eyes Only

I want to know how to create a mouth and eye set that has no body or head.  I want to place it on a stop motion animation video.  I tried making layers of my puppet invisible: it worked a bit but the head kept reappearing randomly.  

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

This should work great. How were you planning on placing it on the stop motion video? You don't need invisible layers, though you could do that. 

Here's a YouTube tutorial of a similar workflow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNkVkSfYRqI&ab_channel=NiceNelly

 

In your case, you don't need the face tracking.

Awesome! Thanks!  I was planning on using characters that are made of clay, paper or wood but don't have facial features and add them afterwards with Character Animator.  I could make this work with a lot of what I'm doing but if there are any tutorials on how to accomplish what I just described I would appreciate it.  Thanks again!
