I second that, were the faces done with a "rig"

I wonder how you pros did the "face rig"... you know, 2D vetor animation projected onto 3D - a "classic" case for cartoony/abstract characters. Could you elaborate a bit, please? Did you use some other software, or did you stay inside Softimage? Because it would be possible for example to animate some curves with blend shapes and the mixer, render some 2D view of those and map this animation onto the faces. Best regards and congratulations!
