| I've recently purchased CrazyTalk, and find it mindblowing.
The reason I bought it is cos I do real time caricatures on my tablet pc, screened via a video projector.
A buddy of mine is a ventriloquist, and he approached me to find out if I knew of any way to animate my drawings.
I happened upon CrazyTalk, and fell in love with it.
Here's the question...
If I draw a quick caricature of an audience member in one of the ventriloquist's shows, and I zap it into CrazyTalk, and make it into a puppet... I'd like to be able to hand over the puppeteering duties to the ventriloquist.
He would do his schtick into the microphone (which CrazyTalk can't deal with as of yet), and, hopefully, use some sort of device in his hand to control the movements of the puppet.
Anyone know of any sort of device that can be used for this?
Is it even possible?
If it's not possible within CrazyTalk, is there some way of exporting the rigged CrazyTalk puppet to another piece of software that WILL allow it? What software might that be? What hardware is there to allow this?
Thanks for your help and attention.

| Oooo, dude! That's amazing! Yeah... I reckon something like that will do the trick.
I was wondering if there is some sort of commercially available 'hand puppet' armature or something, the kind of thing that a ventriloquist might use. Wired to work with CrazyTalk.
Failing that, something like the Wii remote would be groovy. Or shall I say, groovii.
