How it works

Audio in. X-sheet out.

Three steps from raw dialogue to a frame-perfect X-Sheet, eliminating the time and tedium between dialogue recording and animating.

Upload your audio
Drag in a WAV, MP3, or M4A file for each character speaking. Load up to four characters simultaneously.

MouthFL analyzes
MouthFL analyzes and transcribes every word. Each phoneme is mapped to one of 13 built-in mouth shapes, frame by frame.
→
STEP 03
Export your X-sheet
Save a CSV X-sheet to be imported into your DragonFrame project or used alongside your existing stop motion animation workflow.
