Hi Justin

The Texas Energy Museum here in Beaumont, TX has a vignette where two
mannequins are static with blank faces. The animation comes in with a video
projection of faces talking. Ryan Smith is the Director.

Hope this helps,

Does anyone know a good source for talking and/or animated manikins?  Also 
for those who have animated manikins, what were the ballpark cost of getting

one produced and what positive and negative experiences have you had with 
them.
