Tella Storee Version 1

And she is finally here. Well kind of. There is still plenty to do but this is the first version. Now to walk you through.

This is the CrazyTalk 8 Pro software. I used a photograph of myself to create this Talking Head. However, I have also been watching some tutorials and I might work on another one for some minor adjustments as I have more information now. She might turn out looking more than slightly different. I will find out soon enough.

I gave her sunglasses, more like rose tinted glasses but as i played back I realised I could see her eyes and she wasn't blinking. So that's something I need to fix.

I have always liked coloured hair, and now I guess I can have fun with different colours depending on my mood. I picked purple to go with the glasses.

Her movements are a little peculiar. These will need more hands on to get right. I also find no arms and hands a little strange since I use my hands a lot when I talk. Something I will explore once I have figured out this talking head. Still some ways to go before I consider a "body" which will requite another software.

From now, all my FreeWrites will be voiced by Tella. And though I had considered starting another Steem account for her, I have decided to keep it simple, and let her share this space with me.

I am satisfied with this first version only because it is the first version and hope to better my skills as I go along. I welcome feedback so do drop your thoughts in the comments. Truly appreciated.

Cheers,
Sheela
