			<content type="html"><![CDATA[This depends entirely on the frame rate you use.

The [i]frame rate[/i] is the number of frames per second in your animation: the number of pictures it takes to fill exactly one second of film. Some conventional frame rates in the brickfilming world are 12fps, 15fps or 24fps. ("fps" stands for [i]frames per second[/i].)

What I do when I animate is first I load up the audio of the person talking in Audacity so I can measure precisely how long their line is. If you're animating at 12FPS, and you have a piece of dialog that is 3.5 seconds long, then you need 3.5 x 12 = 42 frames. The general equation is as follows.

[i]length[/i] x [i]frame rate[/i] = [i]number of frames[/i]

Again, this depends on the frame rate you are shooting with.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[How long does a character take to say hello?  At what point does he wave?  At what point does the character lower his arm?

Is your question about setting the length of time a frame should last for a dialog or are you asking about animating a dialog?  Because you should already know how long the dialog is.  How long each word last, where a gesture will occur, etc.  That is, unless you don't have the dialog recordings yet.]]></content>
