I preformed different thin= gs like head angle and hand gestures. Then made expression controllers in th= e main comp referencing the precomps to control the time remapping between f= rames.

You can view what I've done with DuIK t= ools on my site at http://www.delrazor.c= om It's the first video for Solvate.

This= was my first foray into using DuIK and I wouldn't go back to the puppet too= l again, unless to use it in conjunction.

Hop= e this helps. Let me know if you want to see how I set this up in more detai= l.

what about precomping, making it a 3d layer and= flipping it on the y-axis? You could also time-reverse keyframes on a 2d la= yer, then scale the object(s) / precomp to a negative Y-value to flip it
