Perhaps having "talking" toggle for each cycle, even if the lips don't match the words, the open-shut of the mouth to mock talking during a cycle would help.
Yes please--even basic emotions like happy, sad, and neutral that can be added separately to their actions (e.g. have someone sitting + sad, or sitting + happy) This is particularly important because part of using these videos is to solve peoples problems and often we want to move them from sad, or angry/frustrated to happy and relaxed.
I agree with Sarah Xu! :)
The "surprised" expression would be nice, badly surprised and nicely surprised. Also "shocked", and sleeping (with the mouth breathing and the zzz).
Some behaviors could be cool too, like looking around, afraid (with arm protecting head), proud, hesitant (finger near mouth), etc.
hey check this out my son helped me make a characters mouth move. Didn't take us long he created a mouth gif and he put it in the scene https://youtu.be/-4K9Sjf5aLU I think he can add hair and other things too but I wish it all came with this.
We really need facial expressions to create animated videos. I would also add one for sweating which is good for stress and also exercise/fitness videos.
It would be great to have more face expressions! it is so difficult to explain things when everybody seems to be so happy. Please consider this feature! Thank you!
Toonly must have the characters with facial expressions like happy sad angry confused and so on. I was expecting the same in toonly when I installed it.
Yes I'm often trying to show how the character *feels* about the topic but they are almost always smiling. Often the point of a commercial is to show the transition from frustrated to happy so this would be a logical addition.
Having at least a happy and sad facial expression would help when we are describing "Pain Points" of the prospect. In the script we are saying "The client has x,y,z pain" yet the video has them looking equally neutral before and after the solution is presented.
I think this would be a great addition to the toonly characters! I completely agree with Sarah Xu about being able to stack actions, i.e. cry+sit or run+excited.
This is so much needed. The expressions available at the moment are way too limited for an effective usage, given the cartoon element is central to this type of animated videos. Please at least implement a sad/crying face, it's quite needed if you want to create a marketing video about problem solving
The basic emotional expressions of joy, trust, surprise, anger, shock, fear, sadness, disgust, would be the ones that are most important to add. Some of the more complex emotions might be too difficult, given the detail of the toons. With these 8, you'd be able to do a lot!
As a therapist, it would be great to have more emotions available. BUT specifically, I'd request being able to have an emotion WHILE also an action. i.e. angry while sitting, etc. ALSO to be able to trim on these settings. It's inconsistent to have someone being angry, then the default happy face pops on at the end of the action.
Yeah, i'm ok with you.
why is the "sheperd boy" entitled to several peculiarities that all the other characters do not have?
The sheperd boy can crying, eating, be frustrated, laughing, pointing hand, reading, smiling, talking?
Why can't others also have these characteristics?
The characters need more basic emotions - angry on some of them looks happy. Can we please have crying, surprised, sad etc. It is really a vital missing piece for videos.
Hi,
The idea of having the expressions such as happy, smiling, angry, mad, sad, crying, eye moving....etc. will greatly be needed in our daily videos. Hope these are made possible soon, thanks from Indonesia.
This is essential. Even for the enteprise verison, I think you should offer other experessions and animations such as swimming, sleeping, surprise, shock, hyperboles, irony, mockery, cooking.
Please add crying and/or tantrums for the child characters. Overall more expressions in general to express a range of emotions. Not just angry and happy.
This really needs to happen, it's very difficult to convey emotion at the moment without it being over the top, for example clapping for someone who is happy
I'm a storyteller and I need lots of emotions to tell a story (crying, sad, feeling lonely, laugh, tease...etc) also create our own characters and make them have those emotions.
The fact that this isn't possible out of the box is deceptive. The marketing video presents facial expressions separately from customizing character animation, so any rational person would take that as they are entirely different systems. That's not a great way to garner goodwill from your paying customers.
This is a must, if the expression doesn´t match the whole animations becomes useless, "...sad, and neutral that can be added separately to their actions (e.g. have someone sitting + sad, or sitting + happy) This is particularly important because part of using these videos is to solve peoples problems and often we want to move them from sad, or angry/frustrated to happy and relaxed."
Hi guys cheers for all this huge amazing work of TOONLY. I know and see lots of comments about the emotions. I am a Interrogation Trainer that uses the emotions as part of the techniques when interviewing people. Spent more than $10000 in my own preparation with emotions and still there is much to be paid!! My point, emotions or non verbal behavior are one of the most rising business today, it can be considered as a top priority for this software, because almost every aspect of life is being covered and taught on schools, enterprises, program shows... Let us teach with this great software, please!!
Yes! So much yes! Please add this to the list of character functionality, along with new movements (pointing, exasperation, shrug, head nods and shakes, emphatic fist pump, etc.). And PLEASE give us the ability to lip sync throughout EVERY movement.
Definitely! So far, I have the 'sad', 'thinking' etc, by using a speech bubble and using an emoticon. Would definitely help if there's more facial expressions.
