Fix8 Unveils Premium Webcam Animation Software; Launches New Web Site
Tweet12/18/07 – Sherman Oaks-based online video animation startup Fix8 today unveiled premium software, which it says is now available for download. Along with the release of the software, the company launched its new web site featuring what it says is a simplified software download process with fun new videos and avatars.
To this point, Fix8 has only offered free software with limited features. The company says the new premium version, priced at $9.95 for a limited time, features more avatar characters, accessories and advanced high-resolution video record options.
Fix8 virtual communications software maps the facial expressions and gestures of its users in real-time with the use of a webcam. Users can choose from avatars, “dress-up” accessories, and flash to create interactive virtually-animated videos for live chats and sharing across social pages and blogs.
Fix8 says its software works across instant messaging services including MSN, Yahoo, AOL Instant Messenger and Skype, as well as social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace and YouTube.
The company recently closed a $3 million funding round led by Vickers Financial Group.
