Tiny Nation: Second Life Projection Light Source Test

Bob the bunny from "Tiny Nation" watched his own theatrical trailer! Testing out the projected light feature in the latest Shadow client. I replaced the default projector texture with the land streaming texture to produce this effect - it's awesome!

It's the same render pipeline as the one with the texture projection, we just used a texture which was set to the land media options to produce the animated light effect

hey crusafried - All of Tiny Nation is actually shot in Second Life. For the lip sync, we use an app called CrazyTalk by Reallusion. We animate the mouths separately and then composite them back into the shot.

There's a lip-sync app built into the client, but it's not as good as Crazy Talk. But, it *does* work. Problem is, it only works on the default *human* avatar and the tinies talkjaw is too primative, Crusafriedchiken.

Hmm is that client from the render-pipeline or Shadowdraft 2, I havent played with the shadow draft branch yet, just render-pipeline which has the texture projection in it.

Oooooo, looks great. The Shadow client, you say?
