I plan to make some web videos using human and animated characters, and some figures with faces/heads talking.
The virtual sets look like a good approach for working with human and iclone figures.
My question is...
Do I need crazy talk to animate facial expressions and other talk to the audience kind of animations, or can that all be done with iClone?
I need for the animated heads/faces to be good quality and the facial expressions to be expressive with emphasis on real human expressions.
I found the content heads for iCLone and they look very realistic and some of the examples have them talking and making facial expressions.
I'm not that interested for "just" head/facial expressions and talk as Crazy talk appears to do. I'm interested to have more expressive character animations, but frequently I may just do waist up animation and talk scenes. The crazy talk animator thing appears too cartoonish for my work. I was thinking to start I would get an iclone, some G4 heads, possibly a few characters, and the virtual studio 1 pack. I have a pretty good colletion of video editing software, including green screen, and studio.
Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated.

Iclone4 has face puppetry and face keying tools as well as lip sync built into the software. You can achieve solid results with that software alone. Basic conversation animations come with the software. You might be interested in some additional conversation body motions in the content store but give the basic software a whir first.
