How do I animate lip sync?

so im making a short and i need to do lip sync.

I thought about putting each charaters dialouge inside a mouth clip and lip syncing there, but i had already put the audio into one file on the main timeline, so i cant do that.

going back and forth from a mouth clip to the main timeline would take way too long, so how should i do it?

hey can i ask a question what does the timeline start frame number and mouth config do?
can i make it so there there are only 4 mouth shapes? i want to do the anime style mouths.

Yes you can load your own mouths and fill the others with blanks.

Timeline Start Frame is the offset point in the Wick timeline where the lip sync should begin.

So:

Start Frame 1
The mouth animation starts at Wick frame 1.

Start Frame 40
The mouth animation starts at Wick frame 40. Everything before frame 40 is treated as before the dialogue starts.

what tipe of file do i use to load the mouths? also the sprite sheet cutter is broken.
i set it to 32 by 32 but it came out as 27 by 37

File type is SVG but not lines must be all filled shapes. But it will take a png
I’ll check what is going on with the sprite sheet cutter. What was the sheet you were trying to cut up?
What sprite sheet is 32 x 32? That is 1024 single images

I just tested the sprite tool and it worked fine.

32squares

Added 7 rows 5 columns…

Sprite test

Nothing broke!
