Ready to create amazing facial animation in Blender?

Don't want to spend too much money and neither too much time with that and as result, have an amazing animation?

You can use Avatary. The free version has a daily limit, that is enough to do a lot.

After creating the face motion data and the mesh in Avatary, you can use this add-on to consolidates the mesh and to have a rig to be used with Avatary Retageter to create the facial animation.

Maybe it seems very complicated, but it isn't (at least not that much)

Watch the tutorial to have a step-by-step explanation.

Summarizing, you have to do these steps:

Download your copy of Avatary at https://www.avatary.cc/
Record a video
Run in Avatary Tracker (and export the retarget file)
Run Avatary Autoface and generate or export a mesh that is available in the software (it will export 52 objs)
Run this plugin in blender, selecting the path to the files generated in the previous step and save it as a blend file
Run Avatary Retageter (it will open blender)
In Blender, using retageter, set the extreme poses and press start to generate the animation

You just need to do steps 4 and 5 if you want to animate a different mesh.
