Thanks, Nige!![:D][:D][:D]

Many thanks for the skin, Mark. I love her. You know I like torsos and when I saw her in your movie, I found her exceptional. Very realistic, looks like a photo.

Great one, thanks again!! [8D][8D][8D]

Forgot to ask you how you can get such a good lipsync in your video. [:)]

Very well done. [8D][8D][8D]

markofkane · April 23, 2008, 06:52:34 AM

You're welcome, GT40.

First: The lipsync is tricky. I usually go to the control panel and change the speed (in speech options) until it's about the same speed as the vocals in the song.

Then I get the words to the song online, unless I know most of the words. I enter the words in the Haptek Console, and record the character moving her lips. It's not as good as what Neil can do, but that's all I can do for now. People Putty is good to make oggs that are in sync, but if there is a lot of music, her lips move to the music. I need her to just move her lips to the vocals.

And Second, the original torso skin looked drab, so I spiced it up. [:D][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D]

GREAT!! Terrific idea! [8D][8D][8D]

So the girl reads the text you wrote, and then you add the sound of the song.

Very clever way (and a lot of time to do it). The result is excellent.

Many thanks for the explanation. Very useful for everyone. [8D][8D][8D]

several comments
that was a terrific video. it brought back memories of my first boy girl party, where my mom watched like a school marm and no one could touch let alone , steal a kiss or hug.

the way i get the lip sync is to turn the sound into a wav then put into people putty and turn into an ogg the-- hap will then sing the ogg with perfect lip moments if the background isn't too over powering. nige has an editor.

Thanks, aladyblond. I use the People Putty trial to make Oggs, but it's too much trouble to install and then revert my hard drive when I am done .
I revert my hard-drive so I can reinstall later without the trial running out. I am still contemplating buying it, but not sure if the cost warrants what I want to do with it.
