I hope Meghan Bizlady will never read this post, she'd be very disappointed.
She doesn't know she lives in the Matrix.
1. Went to Yvona site for a demo and chose Emma's voice
2. Pasted the text she's supposed to say in the window
3. After she spoke, found the .mp3 file in the Temporary Internet Files folder
4. Converted the .mp3 into a .wav in Audacity
5. Converted the .wav into an .ogg (with lipsync tags) in People Putty
6. Launched bizlady.htr and added her "environment"
7. Started CamStudio with a 640 x 360 mask (the size of the basic 16:9 window in YouTube)
8. Dropped the .ogg in the Haptek Player (YES, FI-NA-LLY!!)
9. When finished, of course, stopped CamStudio.
10. Sorry, no #10
As you can see, nothing special, no Hal inside.
But what a stupid idea to do all that for a 19 seconds video.
Maybe just because, in the real life, I HAVE NO IPHONE...
