How do animators sync up their characters talking with audio?

1.13K views

How do they make their character’s mouths move at just the right speed? Is there a lot of overshooting/undershooting and then having to go back and fix the frames? Or is there some general rule of thumb (x amount of frames to each second of audio)?

I don’t know how it is done now, with computers. Before then, they drew them 1 frame at a time. That is why a 2 hour movie would take a good 2-3 years to do. I am sure it has been reduced to a science by now.
