![]() ![]() ![]() If I could bring animated talking characters in to SketchUp I could probably leave my video editor behind and work entirely in one software, but I’m guessing this isn’t in the cards. ![]() MakeHuman (TM) is an open source (so it's completely free), innovative and professional software for the modelling of 3-Dimensional humanoid. We recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus. This free application can be installed on Mac OS X 10.6.0 or later. Here’s a quick video I did a few years ago illustrating that procedure. This free software for Mac OS X was originally produced by MakeHuman. This method layers an animated 2D image (with sound) on to the face of a 3D character, which works so long as the character is directly facing the camera. You can animate the face and add sound in CrazyTalk, which is very reasonably priced at $50 I think, or $30 on sale, something like that. That is, you can move the entire character around the scene, rotate and scale it, add lights and shadows, but you can’t animate arms and legs etc.įinally, you can make a MakeHuman character talk by layering an animated face on top of the character in a video editor. You can kind of animate MakeHuman characters in a video editor such as Hitfilm (they have a free version). MakeHuman is a tool designed to simplify the creation of virtual humans using a Graphical User Interface, also commonly referred to as a GUI. You can also animate MakeHuman characters in a much more customized way in Blender, which I’ve not yet done. You can animate a MakeHuman character pretty easily by bringing it in to Mixamo. Daz is like Poser but free, well, the software is free, the characters can cost you plenty. MakeHuman is free, Poser costs $200 I think. MakeHuman is just for creating characters, and I believe Poser does much more, such as animate. I have used Daz, which seems comparable to Poser. But as it happens, I just yesterday decided to take a closer look at Poser. I’m sorry, I can’t really compare MakeHuman to Poser. ![]()
