Unity Mecanim Blendshapes Fixes

Use multiple animations layers w blending set to ‘additive’.   Use your base layer for idle or body animations.
-> Create a layer below it that has your blendshape animations such as eye blinking.

The bottom animation layers will override the top. If you have a blinking animation that only applies to the blink blendshape and it is set on the layer below the base, it will override the base and apply blinking on top of the idle animation.
