Animating Pre-Recorded Speech?

MarcCCTx

Is there current plugins to animate lip-synching with pre-recorded voices? 

Mimic doesn't seem to work. DTalks seems to be real-time.

I just want to be able to animate conversations, assigning speech to different characters who are moving around. 

Any suggestions?

the 32bit version of DAZ studio has Lipsync, you can save a scene or animated pose to use in the 64 bit

So there's nothing in the current version?

download the 32bit version of the current build as well, DAZ doesn't own the license for the the 64bit code for it

For Genesis 8 and 8.1, you can use FaceMojo from the store or FaceMotion from a 3rd party, I use FaceMotion as that was available first. It works wonderfully. For Genesis 9, there's FaceMojo and it works like a charm as well. The only thing is you can't just let the audio play and the scripts do the lipsync, you'll have to get FaceCap (an app for the iPhone and iPad), play the audio and act it out yourself so the script will get the keyframes of your facial movement. I do this every single day for work, it's really easy. If you have actors, just record the audio with the phone in front of their faces as they're acting so you don't have to try and get the animation right yourself! Good luck!

if you want paid plugins there is also Poserecorder and AniLip
