Blend shape animations are a technique used to smoothly transition between different poses, creating lifelike movements. This is commonly used for animating a character's face or body by blending between a series of different shapes. In the session titled "Compose interactive 3D content in Reality Composer Pro," blend shape animations are demonstrated by animating plants from a wilted to a healthy state and vice versa. The blend shape animation API includes a blend shape weights mapping, a blend shape weights component, and methods to execute animations either procedurally or via USD animation.

For more details, you can refer to the session Compose interactive 3D content in Reality Composer Pro (27:23).
