9:50 Shape Keys and Drivers
Shape Keys are a powerful tool that allows you to move and manipulate geometry in a non-destructive fashion. You can store those geometry changes as named keys (shape keys) and then use them alone or in combination.
Let’s start by using Shape Keys to animate the mouth and eyes. We’ll play with the monkey to help us get a better understanding of how the keys work. The shape keys are found in the vertex menu in the properties panel. Blender will remember the various shapes that you model in the character.
Shape keys are like add ons. You can animate them with keyframes.
Drivers can be used to control the shapes. A bone can be a driver. Let’s add a driver to the Monkey so that when the control changes, so does the shape key.
