Lipsynching with Crazy Talk 4

Thanks to moo Money, I was pointed to this amazing piece of software called Crazy Talk 4, which is able to do all sorts of very creative lipsynching, very easily, using just a few pictures uploaded from Second Life (or… well… basically anything, really!).

Poser 5 for free… for a while!

After finishing a 2-month-long marathon to make a “proof of concept” machinima using Second Life for a customer, I just saw this post on the Official Linden Blog. Yes, for four days you’ll be able to get a valid license key of Poser 5 in your name.

Until recently, this was basically impossible. Either you had a top-of-the-line piece of software, and were [...]

Ulrika`s tutorial on animation!

I finally found out the best introduction so far on animation for Second Life using Poser!
Thanks for Ulrika for all her trouble in getting this basic tutorial available online!
The only extra thing you need to know about animations is letting Poser do the scaling for you, and usually replying that your arms are on the [...]

DreamWorks at your home!

Having played around with objects (hard to master), scripting (well even harder really) and clothes design (stupidly simple if you know Photoshop well or something similar; the only hard part is being a good clothes designer. Like in the real world!), I thought I would take a hand at animations…
