Well for the animation, you can check on here

DARA’S GUIDE: Overlays

You can use the create command to add them into your story

&overlay OVERLAYNAME create
&overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 1 in 0

And add the shifting and stuff.

You can use zooming for the character body parts to not look so weird if you’re using a limb. If you have a custom pose and you want to rotate the arms, you have to remove the arms and have arm limbs and rotate the arms. You can find how to from the guide I mentioned above. For mouth overlays, you have to have a overlay of the skintone to cover the mouth and have mouth overlays and shift it etc, here’s a template for that.

Moving Mouth Template - Google Docs

To create them in general, you have to cut out whatever bodypart from the characters and upload it to your overlays. Sharastories has a goggle drive of limbs if you don’t know.
