In December 2012, CrazyTalk 7 was named
"Mac App Store BEST of 2012"
CrazyTalk7
uses powerful Auto-animation technology that’s allows any user, no matter if
you are an iMovie-maker or a creative user, from any level, to create talking
character videos from any digital photograph.
Bring any face to life with CrazyTalk7’s simple face-fitting guide, and
then use your own voice to puppet your actor’s performance in real-time.
Auto-motion
technology in CrazyTalk7 is an innovative, time-saving and voice-driven
animation tools that help
users create high quality animations in just a few
minutes. Users can use their own voice energy to control
and generate natural character animations.
How you speak directly affects your avatar’s mood and tempo such as;
whispering to replicate a quiet mood with little movement, shouting to get
exaggerated results with a close-up camera, facial flaring, or singing to a
rhythmic beat. Moreover, you
may choose from various performance styles to set a unique personality to your
character’s base movement. Then choose a Talk mode to make your character speak
your audio with lip-syncs, and add emotions with the Auto Motion templates that
are driven by the same audio track. Or
choose a Listen mode that turns your character into an attentive listener, or a
headphone-jamming music lover that responds to the beat, complete with head,
eyes and facial expressions.
“We have been to a lot of events, but this is our first
Macworld/iWorld and it was, by far, the best we’ve attended in terms of the
platform it provided us to demonstrate our CrazyTalk 7 app and reach our target
audiences,” said John Martin, vice president, Marketing at Reallusion, Macworld “Best of Show” winner. “The
combination of ‘First Looks’ and dedicated ‘Appalooza’ area of the show floor
gave us unparalleled exposure to a wide variety of attendees, including
consumers, students, industry experts and press, as well as business
development opportunities and the chance to connect with fellow developers. We
loved our Macworld/iWorld experience and look forward to next year.”
