Hey everyone, going to add this comment for frequently asked questions. I will continue to add to this as needed. Q: I don't see the auto lip sync button. A: You will a recent edition of Adobe Animate. This feature was added to the 2020 version of the program. Q: I can't hear the audio on the main timeline. A: You will often need to place the audio both in the imbedded timeline AND the main timeline in order to hear it while animating between the different timelines. Q: Can this work with different sets of mouths? A: Yes, one way you can achieve this would be to have each mouth set on it's own layer all being synced to the same audio layer. Once they all have interpreted to the audio you could simply delete the keyframes of the set you don't want visible during that part of the VO. Q: Can I have multiple characters in the scene with lip sync? A: Yes, if your characters are all inside their own symbols you can place the separated audio track inside those for each character. I would recommend using an audio program like Adobe Audition to mix down each characters separate audio, then a master mix of all the characters. The separate audio for each character would be placed inside that characters symbol, and the master mix audio would be placed on the main timeline, so you can preview while you're animating.

I've always just done it manually. It was so time consuming but I can definatly use this to speed things up a bit. Thank you so much

Great tutorial. I've been working with animate/flash since the early 2000s and have been synching mouths by ear and never got around to learning to do it automatically. You still need to tweak a few things on your own to get the perfect lip synch but this method makes things so much easier and saves so much time!!!!

Thank you so much! I was about to legit cry because a vision I had for a lyric video required lips in specific anime style to lip sync and I had no idea how to tackle it. With this video I was able to get it all done! Appreciate you!

Come back please... You are a Great Teacher and it's not easy to find a Great Teacher. And thank you very much for being such a wonderful teacher who truly helped us to understanding things easily!

Great video Chad, not sure that I’ll ever use this info since I don’t really animate stuff but it was still very informative. Also it was really cool to see cartoon Chad in all his glory. I’m glad you are uploading videos to the main channel again. Keep up the phenomenal work.

Thank you so much for the tutorial! I used to draw the lip sync manually every single frame and it would take a long time😅, but this is a real time-saver and looks just as good.

Just used this for my finals project along with other things and got a 100.. Appreciate it man

This tutorial is great. You seem like a guy who should have 1 million subscribers. Its hard to see someone this professional at this amount of subscribers.

Wish I could like this video 7 times for the 7 times I've followed this tutorial and it's helped me do exactly what I hope to do! Big ups!

Outstanding tutorial. Very simple and clear instructions....great voice too. I'm subscribing!

I am a super beginner just started 2 days ago and these tutorials are great if you have at least a moderate level of understanding ~ I can not figure out how to just properly import the Lip Sync file into Adobe Animate. I get it I have worked with Illustrator for 30 years and I do the same thing when trying to explain AI to people. Anyway, I will bookmark it and see if I can find another tutorial that starts at the absolute beginning.

subscribed because i was procrastinating my animation project even after I finished all the lip syncs just because of this

It's amazing how far Flash has come. I first used it when Macromedia used to sell it.

very nice and clear, thank you 🙏🏼

Thank you so much for this, this made my assignment so much clearer.

Fantastic, this is a massive time saver for me and a project I'm working on. Thank you.

I've used Adobe Animate CC while studing for Bachelor of Science (BSC) in Animation&VFX course in a university in Bangalore for 3 years. I found the lip-sync of seagull too in this same software. If you couldn't have shared every Animate Tutorial with us, then we might have forgotten it.

BROTHER, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! You oooh really helped me!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

You are the man!!!!!!

Cool Tutorial. Really understandable. Big Thanks!

Dude, thank you so much for this tutorial, I really needed it dude, you are very good at this subject

Superb ♥️🔥 thanks for it...

Dude, thank you.

Awesome 👏

Great tutorial! Thanks

Nice tutorial! 👍 Yes, regular lip-syncing is very tedious, especially when you have long animations or multiple characters as I do in many of my animations. I've been using Flash since 2006. Adobe has come a long way. Question. What if there are multiple characters in a scene? How does this automated lip-sync method work?

soo cool dude

Thanks man, so clear!

Tq for teaching

Thanks a lot, man, for this great content! Greetings.

LOOOL YESSSSSSSS TNice tutorialS COMNT IS FELTTTTT

Superb bro

Wow....Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩

ah here we go, this is what i'm looking for. very easy to understand this one compared to others

Thanks for your video, it's really helpful

Can you make a course or dedicated playlist for this character's full animation?

omg . thank you sooooooo mach

You have just made me save a lot I mean a lot of time THANK YOU

Hello, Good way for illustration, have a question: which software can make auto lip sync easy with camera? thanks

Hi, Thank you very much for this great tutorial. One thing you did not cover that is "JAW" animation with lip sync. Can you please make a tutorial on Jaw animation with lip sync. Thanks again!

fantastic. Hopefully adobe can improve this system

You r better than all in it do more do walk cycle etc

ChitChad, can we use photoshop characters distributed in layers for animating in animate cc? Or just ones from Adobe illustrate? I am confused a lot regarding same and I don't understand what difference it makes (in working) other than the raster and vector difference.. Please teach the photoshop character animation in animate cc if possible. Thank You 🙏

I genuinely hope you reply to this ASAP, for some reason my visemes will cover all images in the lip sync window depending on which is selected. Example: If I select the neutral mouth in it's frame, only neutral mouths will cover all options in the lip sync window, same goes for each viseme. Any advice?

thanks bro! subbed

Thank you! :)

thanks a lot, keep it up

I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL SO MUCH YOU HELPED ME ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is awesome! I feel like this is obtainable for my skill level. Thank you! Do you know if it will be ditto incorporate hand drawn art to trace and for backgrounds?

cool

Please give me advice, can I make synced lips like that and put it over the slightly animated character (insert the video file in Adobe Animate)? Or I should export the synced lips somehow and put it over the animation in after effects? Thank you for your useful video! ❤

i like lip syncing by hand because it looks smoother

Thanks Chad :)

When he converts to symbol, the type is not set to Graphic by default, so you have to make sure to set it as Graphic or else Lip Sync wont be an option in the object properties!

Is there any way to save the lip sync so I can use it for a different scene?

@chitchadshow how does the chin move with moving lips during lips sync?

Great tutorial thank you, do you think that it will work on something i took a picture of ? for exemple if i took a pic of a teddy bear, will it work on him ?

Can you do this in after effects as well?

Hey I have a question, in the part where your making each mouths shape its own keyframe, instead of using add keyframe, can we cut add blank keyframe and then paste to blank keyframe or would that not work, thanks

Hey Is There Any Plugin Or Preset Or Method Like This In After Effects? Please Answer

How could I save this layer, lip synce, for further use in other scence

Is there a way to automate expressions? Such as eyes and eye brows?

How do you animate the jaw along with the mouth?

Hi, thank you very much for that. Can you please tell me how much would you charge per minute? I started doing this for someone and I wanted to know how much would a professional like yourself charge a customer for one minute of manual lip sync(without animation of the body, only lips). If you can give me an estimate, it would help me a lot, thank you very much.

Hopefully this will be seen and answered. Haha! Is there a way to lock the mouth to a specific object, so if it moves or scales, they will too? Couldn't figure out what to search to find a video for that.

Thanks, I feel more confident giving this an attempt now! :) P.S. I think they're probably pronounced "vi"-"zemes" like after "pho"-"nemes"..?

is there a way to make it smoothy transition or shape-tween between each of these mouth shapes? ive seen it done in the early episodes of BFDI and CaryKH's channel and i like the effect, if not i can just make my own intermediate mouths edit: they also do it in family guy but i dont know if they use animate

Can you make a video about how to animate the hands and arms and correct layering of them? Because I can't find information about it, I mean with a simple character for example an animal, that their arms are only one layer, how I do for them to be behind the body but at the same time the character touch their face?

Does anyone know if there is a way to do this over a rig? Like where you do auto lip sync, and move the mouth within each frame so it matches up with the head if the head is moving? Hope this makes sense

Thanks a lot! where's the 'Th' mouth pose

Gold.

I wonder if there is a way to make this kinda thing in live2d so I can use this method to talk on livestreams

CAN I DO THIS FOR MULTI CHATACTER and will it also work for moving characters

Thank you so much, you are the best, how do I know where to add the frame to show the sound file? If it were say 3 minutes and 30 seconds, what frame number would I pick? So sorry u-u how many frames per second did you use?

i have adobe animate 2021 v21.0.7.42652 but the rest of the visemes don't appear in frame picker. just one symbol. what's going on?

How does auto lip sync work with different mouth sets which use the same sounds (Happy Ah verses Sad ‘Ah’.) How do I go between the different expressions?

Hello there 👋 i have one question the lip syncing property panel is not appearing in my window even though i clicked on visemes. What shall i do?

THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS HELPED ME ALOT
