This video has long been in the pipeline and is a direct sequel. We have looked at lip-syncing for our audio avatar, now we look at an aestetic drawback - unblinking eyes. I offer two methods for solving this. You can either create eyelids that close over the eyes, or you can utilise a code that will make the eyes shrink and blink; automatically controlled by the audio. I personally use a combination of both methods.

Difficulty: * * * * *

Special Thanks to RJWaters2 who taught me this less-awfully.

You will need this code:

minAudio = 0;
maxAudio = 20;
minSize = 10;
maxSize = 100;
a = thisComp.layer("Audio Amplitude").effect("Both Channels")("Slider");
s = linear(a,minAudio,maxAudio,maxSize,minSize);
[value[0],s]
