What Muvizu is
Muvizu is Windows software for creating 3D animations and rendering them as videos. It includes 3D modeling, automatic lip sync in both Muvizu:Play and Play+, and exports to AVI or a Targa sequence. The two plans differ in output, content, and use restrictions. Play produces SD watermarked renders and lists 2 customizable character types, 75 attachments, 79 objects, 1 special effect, and 1 scene. Play+ provides 1920 x 1080 output and unlimited watermark-free video, with 17 character types, 990 attachments, 570 objects, 22 effects, and 77 scenes. Play+ supports importing user-created .set, .fbx, and .ase content. It is listed at $69.99 a month, billed as a one-off payment, and a free trial is available, though there is no free plan. The maker says watermarked Play output is for educational, non-commercial, and personal projects, while Play+ has no commercial restrictions. Minimum requirements include Windows 7 or newer, a 2.4 GHz processor, a Shader Model 3 graphics card, and 2.3 GB of free disk space.
