Welcome to BeatMaker. Where the nice, modern, intuitive iPhone user interface is utterly abandoned in favour of the interface from hell. And the travesty is that there's a very powerful music sequencer in here struggling to break out.

LipSync is a fun iPhone app that lets you animate images by giving them comic mouths that move to what you say. You can use stock photos provided with the app or photos taken with the iPhone's camera. After the photo has been selected and resized as desired you can select the mouth area and the teeth you would like to use. Once everything has been selected the mouth you have created will move to what you say or nearby sounds. It has a lot of fun and silly ways it can be used. Read the rest of this entry »
