Looking for some advice.

I have a photo with two faces on and want to animate both as 2D heads to talk to each other. I like to crop the heads from the picture using photo shop then bring them in on a different layer to stop background distortion. 
Is there any way I can have two people in 1 photo?

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi...

CrazyTalk 8 can only animate one head per project. If you want to work with multiple heads you may find Cartoon Animator 4 will be a better solution.

With CrazyTalk the only way around it is to create two projects, one with a character on the right side and one with the other character on the left side. Then you can export the two projects to video with a transparent background (or use green screen) and then overlay them in a video editor. Most video editors allow this but obviously it involves more work.

Overall if you need to create more projects with multiple characters then certainly Cartoon Animator 4 will be the better option in the long term.
