I'm a physician, I've dissected these muscles. I can't even remember all the Latin names. As an artist, I've been looking for years for video like this. This is over the top the best. Getting this course when my studio is completed. Ty Very glad I didn't have to pull a da Vinci and start digging up bodies.
Fantastic content and presentation!! Thank you! About Latin - I got nowhere with my figurative anatomy until I got a medical dictionary (pre internet) and translated everything into English. Take the time once and you've got it. Now I can remember the Latin and the English and it all makes sense.
Yeah I was also surprised at how little I’d heard about these fat pads when they are so incredibly useful for portraiture even in younger people where they are more subtle.
P.S. Idea! create a challenge for your subscribers to rename the Latin names of things with something relatable. After listening to you talk about all the Latin names, I’m thinking why are we using those? We have nicknames for pretty much everything these days. Why not do a Hale sort of thing and have listeners come up with relatable names for the parts! ❤
I would argue that obicularis oculi and Oris and their underlying skull structures are one of the most(if not the most) important aspects of portraiture, particularly in sculpting. The nasojugal groove took me quite a bit of study to work out. And of course, most beginners underestimate the roundness and facial depth of the maxilla and usually put Mr. Potato head lips on the flat. 😁
ive heard that there are 40 muscles in the human face, that are unique in the human form as they don't attach to the skull, apparently capable of making over 100 facial expressions
The Latin names are not complicated at all. They simply describe the action of a muscle. "Levator Labii Superioris Alaeque Nasi" literally translates to "Raiser of the Upper Lip and the Wings of the Nose". Same goes for every other muscle name in the body. Once you understand that, everything becomes much easier. You should look into it as an instructor.
Love your videos! One thing for you personally, when you talked about the face changing as you age being pulled down by gravity, and the inevitable march of time… Our face gets pulled down because of our thoughts not because we get older. You can see in those well-worn faces the thoughts they’ve been thinking all this time. There are people who are older in years, who have bright, cheerful faces. Just something to think about. Do yourself a favor and don’t accept our cultural beliefs about aging. They are “true” only because we believe them. ❤
The reason the fat pads don't have classical Latin names is because they have been invented by American plastic surgeons. Easier to discuss outcomes with middle age housewives. 😂 There is a section on fat pads in the book 'Anatomy for Sculptors', but yes, it's a much overlooked artistic anatomy aspect.

Muito top as explicações
the facial muscles are THIN.
it's the subcutaneous layer (sitting on the facial muscles) which has the most influence on surface form.

That creaking sound! Don't forget to oil your muscles regularly :D :D :D

Thank you for this reminder. Think uplifting thoughts.
Your expressions are silly but they illustrate your points very well. Faces are weird!
make me laugh a lot at the begginng pusshing you re to show the foundation of the head
no house without basement
I wish the muscles had normal non latin names
You don’t have to remember their names, rather remember their placement and shapes. You’re not a doctor at the end of the day
@@donni7887 i know i know, but it would be easter doing art guidance with coworkers.
Also, it would be easier for the doctors.

Say fat pad again. I dare you.
