San Francisco, CA - March 1st 2012 - Rocketbox Studios and OC3 Entertainment will demonstrate their combined technologies at the 2012 Game Developers Conference. OC3 Entertainment’s FaceFX software will drive Rocketbox Complete Characters HD stock 3D models with realistic animation data generated from audio files.
The combined offering will make it affordable and easy to create animated dialogue sequences. Developers will be able to jumpstart production with high-quality 3D characters pre-rigged for facial animation. Effective immediately, the integration will be made available free of charge to mutual customers of OC3 Entertainment and Rocketbox Studios.
“The bar continues to rise for facial animation in games,” says Doug Perkowski, CEO of OC3 Entertainment. “By combining FaceFX and Rocketbox technologies, indie games and blockbuster titles alike can meet that challenge without breaking the bank.”
“Game developers are looking for a complete solution for creating realistic talking characters," says Markus Wojcik, CEO of Rocketbox Studios. “The partnership between OC3 Entertainment and Rocketbox Studios makes it easier than ever to create games that are rich with spoken content.”
Rocketbox characters being driven by FaceFX software will be showcased at GDC booths #716 (FaceFX) and #1604-N (Rocketbox Studios).
