I hope to have my dragon say a few words in my next animation
and I've been trying to figure out the best way to animate his mouth.

His mouth is constructed differently from what you've shown, so
I probably won't be able to use your macro directly, but I will have
a look to see what I can learn.

I have 8 control points on the lips, as well as 2 degrees-of-freedom
on the lower jaw.  I also have a few control points on the face, eyes,
and forehead to include some expression.

I just haven't come up with a manageable way of animating them yet.
