Hi everyone,
We are thrilled that iClone 7.9 was released last week, and we can't wait to see some exciting animation results. This thread is for everyone to showcase your project/showcase/WIP that made with this update, especially animated with AccuLips, ExpressionPlus (ExPlus) Profiles and facial mocap!

Nice! And I'm sure it will look good if you use AccuLips for animation
Looking forward to your animated submission!

I am using Google Translate and audio like a Text To Speech. I used Bandicam screen recorder to record audio. Then I used 4Media Ultimate Video Converter
(you can record audio from video) to convert. These are Try Before You Buy and work great.
You get 10 minutes of screen recording with Bandicam Logo.
You get 3 minutes of video or audio recording with 4Media. That is more than enough time to record your speech.
With 4Media, you put your video or audio in and then you can choose to record starting at, let's say 4:39 and only want to record 10 seconds from that point.
You just type in the number where you want to record and how long, and that's it.
So simple.

Hi Charly Rama, michaelrbarton, rosuckmedia, Kellytoons, Capemedia
Thanks for the quick sharing!
How's the feeling of using the new AccuLips, comparing the original lip sync?

@Eric C (RL) -- AccuLips is amazing!. So much faster and easier to use, and much better out of the box. In the video below the one on the left is CC3 Digital Human 7.7 version, and the one on the right is CC3+ 7.9 version. with ARKit applied (although not used in this). The motions and expressions are copied from the old to the new. and I applied a tongue twister TTS voice to both. I tweaked nothing at all, not motion, viseme, or expression. Just added the sound file to both and rendered.
The two don't look quite the same (I just updated, finally, to CC3+) which is a topic for another thread, but it is super interesting that they don't move quite the same and sometimes don't even blink the same (although they're both set to normal). Those aren't necessarily bad things, just interesting.
Anyway, I thought the comparison was interesting. Thank you Reallusion Team for the great update(s)!

@Eric C(RL)
Hello Eric The new accuLipsync, Face Puppet and Facial Expression. Is really a great update. You can get very good results even without Live Face. I really enjoy working with it. so many new morphs I look forward to further updates at a later date (language translation.)
Greetings rosuckmedia:)

One wonderfull thing with this update is, whatever language you use, the lips movements are so well captured that it works. In this video, I captured using three languages and it's so natural. I didn't have this before

I think it opens up possibilities that I could not conceive of previously. I still think Live Face doing direct capture has the superior lipsync, but that's not something everyone has access to and even those of us who do can't always use it for that purpose (like when we are using some other audio without the live actor available).
You all did a great job, far better than I would have imagined, and now everyone should have all the tools needed for superior facial animation.

It works a lot faster and smoother than before. I've also learned that instead of trying to fix some of the misspelled words, it is much easier to delete and cut and paste the whole sentence or phrase in the box.
Also is there a way for iClone to recognize more Microsoft voices besides Microsoft David, Zira and Hazel. I've downloaded 10 more Microsoft voices, but iClone does not recognize them.
Could you do some kind of patch or hotfix?

The issue with voices has more to do with them being locked by Microsoft and not caused by Reallusion. There's a post with a video showing just how to unlock the voices for full use here.

Hi Charly Rama, michaelrbarton, rosuckmedia, Kellytoons, Capemedia
Thanks for the quick sharing!
How's the feeling of using the new AccuLips, comparing the original lip sync?
I have worked extensively using the old method for client jobs and the time it took was the benchmark. I became quite good at lip-syncing the old way and could create my animation in a reasonably quick time for English (Australian and American accents). Character voices needed more attention to detail due to the way the words are mouthed.
But this AccuLips surprised the hell out of me! Even when I loaded the first file there was a good match straight away, not perfect but good. However with a few tweaks to the words and manually aligning them you have a fantastic starting point. With the additional old school approach there is no reason why high quality lip-sync cannot be attained.
Overall I think the AccuLips will have halved the time it will take me to do lip-syncing going forward.
ExPlus Facial Expressions are like the cherry on the top and more facial control is crucial to great animation.
Thank you Reallusion :)

New Version of my character with the Tongue Twister.
So many lovely little touches with these updates--being able to edit visemes in one page, being able to set a speed for the voice, just so much. It is a breeze to use compared to the old version. For this, I just loaded the sound and text files, then slowed them to 95% to deepen his voice and put "Slow" in the Talking Style Editor.
And he's wearing his new brows and hair, so he's all spiffied up!
Thank you RL team for this awesome update!
Edit: helps if I add the video...sigh

Mary Pitches iClone 7.9 and CC3.4. Thank you Reallusion for this long awaited upgrade. IMHO the new features are fantastic!
I noticed that the video is sharper when viewed on YouTube
Thanks for viewing!

This is my second attempt at working with the iPhone Facial Mocap plugin. Although there are some sync issues that I need to fix, raw out of the box I think it looks much better than what I got with the previous version of the plugin.

I "revived" my old CC3 female lead character and told her to recite a Shakespeare poem using AccuLips and TTS - worked like a charm, almost "plug&play". Good job, RL team, congratulations!
