I've been using CrazyTalk 8 now for almost a year to animate a goofy little video series based on the Elite Dangerous video game.

Link to series here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTd3rZN0P9wybyeRF8PUHqA

Constructive criticism is welcome.  

That was some very nice work. The ships were very well done and the story was very amusing. I cracked up when they 'landed' on the planet.
Very good. 

I couldn't seem to get to the actual YT page on it so I couldn't like, but went to your channel and watched the last episode.
Liked, commented, and subbed.

As an original Elite and Elite Dangerous player, I enjoyed that.

Wow, that's really cool work! (if you created all of the footage )

But i don't really see the connection to:
"I've been using CrazyTalk 8 now for almost a year to animate a goofy little video series"...
Do you mean iClone?

OR, did you use Crazy Talk 8 to "insert/overlay" Talking Heads into existing Game-Footage with Video-Editor (NLE)?
I guess that is what you are talking about...
Well done anyway

Well, thank you all for the compliments. And, as much as I'd like to take credit for all the work, it's option #2 as toystorylab suggests. I have plenty of other responsibilities in life, no time to figure out how to fully animate it, so... game play overlaid with talking heads.  

@ rollasoc 
That goes for me too. Funny thing is, I'm not really a game player anymore, but when Elite Dangerous came a long, nostalgia took over and I've been playing it since. Another wave of nostalgia caused me to create those videos so I could parody Elite, Trek and just about any other Sci Fi I could think of. 

Thanks again, all. Glad you enjoyed it.

For any who are interested, my latest video in my series: 


Made plenty of mistakes in this one, but constructive criticism is still welcome.  

Also, I'm considering the possibility of using iClone for some of the animation, but the task of getting my main character incorporated into it seems pretty daunting. Just finding hair that matches is turning into a chore. Any and all suggestions welcome.

Wow, this was very entertaining and funny. Well done!

In case you didn't find those conforming hair styles yet.
I think this one matches your main character (the younger guy?):

Yea, I noticed that when I was poking around earlier. It looks close, but not sure it's exact. I'll take a closer look at it, thanks. I'm still weighing my options here.  

And now, my next video, a month late because of "stuff!"  

Star Grind, Episode 7: Where No Jones Has Gone Before:


Enjoy.  

For any who have been enjoying them, here is:
