Lip-synchronizing
CrazyTalk provides special lip synchronization tools to make sure that the lip movements exactly match the words being spoken by the animated model. A viseme is a generic facial image that can be used to describe a particular sound. It is the visual equivalent of a phoneme or unit of sound in spoken language. Using visemes, CrazyTalk provides perfect lip synchronization which you can adjust for different sounds as required..
Double-click anywhere on the Lips track to synchronize the lip movements as follows. You can also select part of the timeline to apply the lip synchronization to that section.
-
Select a viseme or phonetic sound from the various options displayed.
-
Move the Expressiveness slider to adjust the strength of the lip movements or enter a number in the corresponding box to specify the intensity.
-
Click the Preview
button to play the script and preview the lip movements to make sure they are synchronized correctly.
-
Click OK when done.
The lip synchronization effect is applied to only a small section of the script and indicated on the track by a grey box. Move the box to other parts of the script as desired or use the editing tools to duplicate the lip movements.
