So for this one I used Acculips again. I think the "normal" talking style suited this animation and I was amazed at the level of the initial results! I used the "Walk Relaxed" animations from the IC7 Motion Pack which were basically perfect for this scene. Here is a video of the initial results:

I used iClone's look at object feature to reduce the head moving side to side and had him focus more facing in the forward direction instead. I also positioned the object to have him looking down, the hat covering his eyes and giving him a more menacing look.

Added a shoulder shrug using the motion key editor with "realistic shoulder" enabled!
Animated taking off the hat as well, with hand gesture. Will probably have to adjust the animation to where the hat actually ends up being.

Just a post saying what I have done since last update. So as far as facial animations go, I've added asymmetries of mouth movement in a few places and more depth in the creases of the skin where I think there is certain emphasis in the words. Its obvious in the submitted video, but I've also added the sinister smile and laugh at the end. I also very much worked on the lighting, finding good camera shots, vfx etc. This character was fun to work with as I can play around with the teeth more. Usually you want them looking nice, however it wasn't the case for this. I still wanted them to look somewhat aesthetically pleasing though, so they're not too hard to look at, but the last few days I did some final touch ups like color grading the teeth to make them look more yellow. 75% of original size (was 672x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 672x19) - Click to enlarge

Besides the foot sliding in the beginning and strange behaviour of the hat while walk, well done...

Just a dude (10/1/2021) What do you mean by the strange behaviour of the hat though so I can improve myself.The hat behaves as if it was not attached to head but something else. In the beginning it works fine but in close up it seems not to follow the head as it should...

Ahhhh ok, thank you for your feedback! I forgot to come back and reply to this post :PThanks for commenting though, my topic doesn't get many replies and it feels like I'm talking to myself most of the time...
