Introducing EXPRESSION STUDIO

A collection of 96 Facial Expression morphs and a custom UI to help you craft the perfect expression.

Note: Special thanks to @FantasiWrapper and @Gabberjaw for alerting me to upper teeth deformation issues, and to @MrGiggly for providing the fix!

This is not your average "Brow Down" morph. The eyebrow is kept at a consistent size and not shrunken by the compressed polygons, eyelid and cheek muscles correctly squint/flex as they would on a real person (for fun - try lowering your eyebrows without flexing the muscles around your eye).

Many of the morphs for this studio activate multiple facial muscles and have been designed to make it easier to craft expressions for those with no experience. Sliders have been adjusted to help prevent accidental "extreme" expressions.

Built in mirrors give you a quick side view and can be rotated from the UI from 90 degree view to 3/4 view. Mirrors can be toggled on and off to save FPS.

Load your custom appearance presets with ease. Just hit "reposition model" and the UI will raise or lower your model's face to the correct position automatically.

Use gaze controls to have your model look in different directions, straight ahead, or focus on you.

Adjust the background brightness from the main panel. See your active morph sliders at a glance with color-changing effects. The stronger the morph, the brighter the color. Switch between Brows, Eyes, Nose/Cheeks, and Mouth/Jaw morphs with the click of a button.

Just found this. Am late to the VAM party sorta-speak. What a seriously handy tool, with all the Help clearly explaining it all. Just had to update to Skynets more recent morph-generator. If you like expressions, you'll love this! Or i do. Thanks!

Absolutely incredible!
It's quite time consuming setting up several morphs, but the results really are worth it!

Thanks for this! :D

(if you are wondering, (like I was) you can create a morph, save it, and add it to timeline for animations, check the "help" section in the UI of the scene for full instructions)
