If you are unfamiliar with the term of "setting keys" or you need a refresher course, it is recommended that you go through number 1 and 2. Project 3a Do 1 and 2 only if you aren’t familiar with key-framing and fixing curves in the graph editor 1.

The audio for your lip sync will be your very own voice.... One of your TA’s will show you how to record your voice for the project. Ham it up. You have two choices for audio: "I'm soooo sexy!" and "You can kiss my butt!" These are your only choices HOWEVER -- You get to decide where to place the emphasis in the sentence and how best to convey what Earl means when he talks to us. DON'T FORGET **** For the lip sync assignment, you'll need a hand held cosmetic mirror at your workstation in order to get reference from your very own face :-) Download Earl here. Have fun ....
