Unreal Engine - Metahuman editor Project

Job ID: 30916634

Budget: €1,500 – €3,000 EUR

We are looking for a programmer who can handle the Unreal Engine, specifically with the creation of a module that connects the character created in the Metahuman Editor to a text-to-speech - generated mp3/wav file so that the speech animation looks natural (facial expressions - lip movement, head, body). We have already solved the text-to-speech generation (via Microsoft Azure).

The goal is to have a 3D character that we will send an audio file to (which will be generated outside the Unreal Engine) and the character will animate and reliably imitate the real movements of a person when speaking - all in real time. So it's just a matter of creating a script that will control the character.

We anticipate that our project will not be absolutely realistic, there will be differences in facial expressions - due to different languages. Ideally, the movement would be based on the kind of sound. We need it to mimic facial expressions + head movements as much as possible. The final project will say short sentences of about 5-10 words.

We will be happy if you write to us what you would be able to create, or what the estimated price would be.

If you are interested in helping us with this project, do not hesitate to contact me.
(Would be happy to discuss the price with you individually based on your requests and skills)
