Hi all
When I am back up to speed with iClone I have in mind a project that goes something like this.
Nearly 100 years ago my mother used to listen to tales told by our old boatman, He was elderly when I knew him and he is long gone, However he told her tales about when he was younger and she was so interested in them that she made notes and then typed, yes typed them up and had them bound into a hardback book and gave them to her father for his birthday in 1920.(that's on the flyleaf) I would dearly like to make an avatar of him telling some of the stories, as they are very good. I do have an old photo taken in about 1936.I know this is the date because in the photo my feet and ankles are showing. Now the photo is black and white obviously and in its way it is quite focused, but he is wearing his old cap. I tried to do the 2d photo into 3d avatar and though it worked to a very small degree, it would be useless for what I have in mind. That would entail filming me giving an intro and then a cross fade (In post production) to him telling the story, I have recorded some of them using the Manx dialect as best I could.
So how can I create an avatar to be as close to him as possible? As I said in the title "d Photo does not work for a variety of reasons. So should I go to one of the 'creators' in the marketplace and see if it can be done, or is there a way of doing it myself.
Here's the photo. I think. It seemed to upload OK but I can't see it in te preview.
So what do I do?? h
Have a great Xmas
