Hi, I hope I'm posting my question in the proper forum.
I have absolutely no experience in animation, film making, or even drawings. I'm not artistic in that way at all. However, I'm interested in creating a talking youtube character. I initially thought Reallusion's Talking Heads 8 was the program I needed.

After discovering their suite of software: iClone, Talking Heads, Character Creator and others- I'm now confused as to which program I need! I suppose some of these programs are plugins.It appears many projects use multiple programs. I simply want to modify a preformed character, give her a preformed outfit (that I could possibly modify if needed), and make it talk using TTS.I'd like the option of some videos showing not just the head, but also the upper body and some showing the full body.
Which character creation program(s) do you recommend?
