I am currently only doing talking head animations. If you can draw it, I can animate it. ^^

There are many voice actors/actresses offering their voices for free here at DA. If you can find them, it's links you'll want to keep! ^^

The rest of the body could also move, but wow this is an experience!

Thank you! This is actually a 2D animation, so I am only animating the head.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
2D?? Woah I would never have guessed!

Hehe want me to make an experiment making one of your characters talk? All it takes is face close-up like this with a neutral expression. Can be colored or black and white, it doesn't really matters. Let me know if you are interested and I can give you details. ^^

Does it need to LOOK CGI-ish, or can you work with lines and solid colors?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It can be anyway you like. Lines and solid colors are fine.

Okay! Are you able to move the body if I provide ample drawings for it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
My current tool only animates the head, but I have another one that can animate a full body 2D character in 3D space with full freedom of motion. That requires creating a perspective template of the character from different sides, and also sprite replacements for the eyes and mouth to allow it to talk and change expressions. I can send you the FLA template if you are interested, but it requires Adobe Flash to create the character template using Flash vector drawing tools.
If a head animation would suffice, than any drawing tools would do. There are options.

Just head and shoulders should do, and leave some space between the hair and the image edges, so the head can move around. I didn't leave much space at the top, and Lara's goggles keep getting off screen.

Also I just realized there should be something my drawing should say. We'd either need to use the audio program you have (the one you used in the Lara animation) and I can write something original, or take audio from elsewhere online.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ideally we could get a voice actor/actress to record the audio. But if nothing else, we can use computer voices like I have been doing in my gallery for years. They are always reliable and available. but lack on emotion (cannot laugh or cry). It's a give and take. In either case, it's a good idea to have the dialog text written down in advance.

I am familiar with the software to simulate those lines, but yeah they sound like robots and don't give convincing acting or emotion. Okay I will write something when I have the character in mind.
