Character Rigging Issue - Eye Blink Affecting Jaw

[Anonymous]

I've been working on a character rig and noticed that for some reason, my Eye Blink Control is affecting my jaw. I think it may be because my blendshape had the mouth shut and so when one of them is on, it automatically reverts back. Can someone help me sort this out?

Hey there, 

What you can do is paint blend shape weights, find the target in which the jaw rotates with the eye blink.... select all the faces by the jaw, convert to vertices and flood that with 0, so it turns black and it quits being affected, that would be all (:
