Easily Set Up a Virtual Avatar with the Free-to-Use ANIMAZE

VTubers have been rising in popularity in the West for the past few months. Now, it’s easier than ever to create your own avatars thanks to Animaze. You can use the avatars for virtual Dungeons & Dragons games, streaming, content creation, and more.

The program is available from Holotech Studios for free via Steam and just added audio-based lip sync and iPhone Bridge (the capability of using an iPhone for face tracking). Of course, you can always subscribe for as little as $20 a year to unlock bonus features like the removal of the watermark and unlimited use of the virtual camera.

Livestream, video chat, and record videos as incredible 2D and 3D avatars! From the developers of Facerig, Animaze redefines avatar embodiment with enhanced face tracking, expressive animation, and improved graphics - as well as a host of new features, avatars, and props.

I downloaded Animaze which is currently in Early Access and I will say, it’s easy to use. You can quickly load up the program and set up an avatar. It was also extremely quick to find my face and get calibrated. If I were a streamer, I’d be tempted to use this more.
