I have to ask a few crits of Alexia, when I animated this rig, I found alot of controls that control nothing. I like the design but its difficult to use. However for your first rig, not bad. But make sure all of the controls work I.e. connected up and having the appropriate attributes open in the channel box.
I like the the design and most of the rig.
A few things I would recommend for future versions : low poly mesh proxy for quicker animation, IK/FK switching for both arms AND legs, and finally and possibly my greatest miff: pivots for heel, toe, and ball on the foot.
Good work. For a first rig, u have tried something new. just one thing. You should have given credits to Filmakademie Institute of animation who has made this great adaptable facial setup possible. They deserve it.
Other than that, Keep it up. u can do a lot more things on the body. Good luck.
