Quote - Not impressed with the lip sync I'm afraid - no better than Mimic. The thing I’m waiting for is better non realistic characters – have you ever seen Pixar create an animation with photorealistic characters – no – and you don’t want to. Give us some characters that reflect the current world of animation. You watch the Incredibles, you say WOW, and then you go home and look a James for two minutes then close Poser. And no you can’t distort things in the face and figure, it just breaks when you animate. So why Isn’t Poser reflecting popular animation culture? If there’s a generic ‘character creation room’ that allows squash and stretch and will give me exaggerated oooo shapes on the mouth. Give me that and I’ll buy Poser in a second. I know people want realistic characters, probably for still images, but for animation there’s a reason Pixar do stylised characters – there more interesting to watch and you can bend the laws of physics. If there’s ever the day we have totally realistic 3D characters in movies (and it’s coming) that would bore the pants off me – I don’t want real when I go to an animation.

This is something I'm trying to work on myself. I've just run into rigging issues here and there but it's coming along.

Also, remember gang, the demo is just that, a demo, we can make our own phenome morphs and anims which can be just as good or better (and in some cases, worse) than what was shown. So while the demo may not have impressed you, consider the potential...
