Lip Sync

lipsync.jpg Peggy Weil: "As an animator, my first contribution was to give the Votrax (a voice synthesizer machine) a face, or at least, a mouth. I digitized sixteen lip positions and matched them to the Votrax library of phonemes. Using the zoom and pan capabilities of an AED Frame Buffer, I was able to display the animated lips pronouncing words typed in "real time" at the workstation."

This is an image of Character Generator, not LIPSYNC. I have emailed a jpg of LIPSYNC to Bob Stein. I've also emailed documentation. Please contact me to correct and update this entire section. (Also Facemaker and Zero Bandwidth Video).
