XtraNormal is an Xtra Amazing Digital Storytelling Tool

March 16, 2009 · No Comments

While listening to Ben Rimes, the founder of Macul Space (among others) interview THE Steve Dembo about his upcoming sessions at this week’s MACUL conference in Detroit, Steve mentioned XtraNormal.

XtraNormal is a tool that simply takes whatever text you type and turns into the spoken script of an animated 3D film. This is no Blabberize, Photostory, or even Kerpoof (although great applications in their own right). This is a movie maker that simulates actual lip movement and changes camera angles automatically. You can control actor gestures and expressions.

Check out this XtraNormal movie about Internet Safety I created in no more than 10 minutes.

Caution! This is highly addictive!

Listen to Ben and Steve.
