Hi! I'm having a problem with mouth triggers. The neutral position works fine, but half the face disappears when I witch to the Ah or the smile. See attached video or link below. Any help would be appreciated.

Is it possible to show us a screencapture of the hierarchy of the face rigging for the puppet? It would be helpful to see how you have the mouth set up to see if anything is missing.

I finally figured it out. I was trying to trigger the Ah mouth, but that doesn't work as a trigger on its own. I duplicated the layer, named differently, and placed separately outside the mouth heirachy. 

How would you handle it?

Thank you for responding!

There are three mouth positions that respond to face tracking - Neutral, Smile and Surprised. If you want to have different mouth shapes, such as sad, that still respond to audio tracking, then you need to create a separate swap set with the mouth. It would look like this:

 

Mouth

     Sad

          (sad visemes)

     Normal

          (normal visemes)

 

And so on.
