Nice video mmarion33. Try and get an isolated vocal track next time though, if you can, for better lip-syncing.



Yeah that was the night I got the program, definitely tighten it up when I rework it, that was the best recording I had laying around, but I actually plan to sub out the song completely, and when I do I'll have the singer do an overdub on a separate track and then mute that one.

Tips and Tricks - Any requests?! No seriously how did she get the camera to move?!

Great to hear about the music suite, I know you have more general items to address first, I'm excited all the same. Another suggestion for work flow is to give it multi-monitor support. Currently the window won't let me take tool boxes outside the main window or re-size the window to stretch across both desktops. That would be great because I'm sure you're aware that it can get pretty crowded with all the camera windows and actions. I realize this might be a platform problem, i.e. the UnReal engine doesn't allow for that kind of interaction and you'd have to get into that code blah :p

So alternatively an easier coding solution might be to allow for hiding of the animation window after you've memorized your shortcuts. (or sound effects window, or eye/head window; it'd be real cool if you could leave the control dots but nix the rest of the window).

Another work flow suggestion would be to add the single time line of each category (animation, eyes/head/ camera etc) in a thin strip above or even in the time slider bar so you can edit right there without switching back and forth to time line mode. It would still be useful even if you couldn't edit from there just to help time events and see things coming to avoid accidentally overwriting later animations.

OK guys keep up the good word I think this forum is gonna be a lot busier shortly cause the beta is strong...

Tips and Tricks - Any requests?! Hello just started playing with Muvizu the night before last and I really dig it. I'm working hard at my first project and noticed that in Emily's Gil Scott Heron poetry club animation that the camera moves. How is this accomplished? (Also really looking forward to put a guitar or drumsticks in my characters hands, I know that would require a whole set of associated animations, the import object function, and object interaction so I'll try and be patient

PS Really awesome work guys I'm astounded at how intuitive the process you are laying out is (I came in at beta, how would you live without the time line?)
