It's great for blocking in general character actions but it's not very accurate for matching specific actions to specific point of dialogue.

The whole character directing concept of Muvizu is both great and the worst idea ever. Next I imported my voice into Muvizu as an MP3 file, set up my character actions and started directing my character to the audio. It was unscripted, just how I do my usual vlogs, but I was mindful to keep things short. I'd already created a Muvizu avatar of myself a few weeks back, when I thought I might try to animate something, just for fun, so it was just a case of creating a set that looked a bit like my office and I was ready to go.īat Storm watching TET film a vlog insideĪll the dialogue I recorded into Audacity. My goal was to keep my animated, animation diary very simple by reproducing the way I would film a live action vlog, using a single camera shot of me, sitting in front of my usual background. You can watch that video below, and it'll give you more information on my future animation plans.

The main reason I haven't is that I had such a frustrating experience with it when I created my Random Testing Unit Muvizu short that I haven't really been excited to go through that again.Ĭonsequently my Muvizu animation skills have gotten very rusty since 2016, when I created Random Testing Unit, so, in an effort to familiarize myself with that software again, I decided to create my latest Animation Diary Vlog using Muvizu. I can't begin to describe how much I want to make a start on Bat Storm animations using Muvizu. I'm going to make this animation a priority and get it finished ASAP. To that end I managed to rig up the character in my opening scene and do the basic key frame animation a few days ago. I'm itching to start new projects with CrazyTalk Animator 3 but I haven't started anything because I'm pushing myself to finish Infinite Monkeys first. Infinite Monkey Theorem has become something of a burden because it really has taken much longer than anticipated, causing me to lose a lot of enthusiasm for getting it done. I have two main priorities, finishing my Infinite Monkey Theorem short, that was only supposed to take 3-4 weeks at the most to complete, and finally doing some Muvizu Bat Storm animated shorts. So, now that my neck is much better, I thought I'd do a quick run down of what I am hoping to focus on in the near future in terms of creating my own animated shorts. It's been a little while since I posted anything to this blog about my own projects thanks to that neck injury I mentioned in my last Animation Diary post update.
