Visit the Maskarad product website. Thinking about it further I remembered that when I was in school we used Magpie Pro for lipsync animation. Maskarad takes lips animation to the next level by using an intelligent phonetic engine to break down audio track cleanly. Import your lip synchronization animations easily using Adobe Flash. Hercules is the most effective and artist-friendly manner in which to create high quality muscle animation for your CG characters. Di-O-Matic has done an excellent job creating character animation plugins and standalone programs that greatly simplify the life of character animators. But it should work the same way as body mocap data into various 3D packages.

No matter which type of character setup you wish to use: It says at the end of the video that one of the ways we can get the motion into our Rigs is using the 3dmarkers motion and feed into our own controls, like a Constraint or something. Maskarad quickly outputs facial animation data ready to be used in your favorite 3D applications. Probably great for a lot of low quality animations. If so, perhaps it would be even easier to get the files into LW by renaming the LW morphs to the same names as the Maskarad morphs and using MM?
Just a simple video file featuring an actor performance is all you need to create lifelike facial animations.

Randall Hand is a computer graphics programmer and news junky that's maatic working in the field for the last 15 years. In Magpie you can load your model in and adjust all of the morphs in time with the audio, then it will export out a text file that we loaded into LightWave. Benefits over morpher Display Floater Pivot sub-object mode.
Automated lip sync animation in Autodesk Maya: What Cluster-O-Matic brings to 3ds Max users: Hercules is the most effective and artist-friendly manner in which to create high quality muscle animation for your CG characters. No computations are required after changing parameters. It would be interesting if there was a set of sample output files so that I knew I would be able to get it working with endomorphs or bones.
