Topic: CrazyTalk face animation software

Hi Guys
You need to check out this software £16 GBP, you can animate a cartoon face or a photography of someones face, very easy and incredibly powerful for what it is.  Awesome bit of kit.

Hey Simon!

Have you tested this program out on Lego minifigs yet?
Looks like this little gem you've found has a lot of potential.

I don't know whether they've updated this since then, but I used to have a copy a few years ago. It was brilliant for individual images (though sometimes the motion could be slightly dodgy) but as I recall you can't use it on video clips. Basically, your frames will have to be stills while your characters talk if you use this software.

This scares me more than I would like to admit.

Re: CrazyTalk face animation software

Lol, good comments. Haven't had time to look at the software properly yet.

My days of brickfilming are gone now. Got a full time job and with twin boys who are now 9 years old, I just don't have the time. Although I thoroughly enjoyed it and was a relaxing hobby. Glad to say my boys love Lego and have my vast collection now. Who know maybe they will be future brickfilmers.
