How do I get my face animations to play on top of my master skeletal component (torso)?

Development Character & Animation

I’m using modular skeletal pieces (head, torso, legs etc) all connected to a master component (body), along with physical animation applied to make it floppy.

I’m trying to get my characters face (head component) to blink/move lips etc, but the head component is following the master components AnimBP instead of its own Face AnimBP. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Please pass this on if others come across the same issue.
