Proper Use of Audio Script File

Cartoon Animator General
1

I am new to CT5 and animation in general… but loving it!

I am creating narration-style animations, so I don’t really have a character actor to apply a script to. I am assuming that the “Create Script” function is only usable when applying it to a specific actor. Is this correct?

So far, I have loaded my voiceover script to the SoundFX1 timeline… and it seems to be working fine… except that I am having program crashes about 1 or 2 times a day.
CT5 support R&D reviewed my project and an older crashdump file and suggested removing the audio file. If the audio file is removed, how do I sync my script with the animations?

(The audio script is approximately 8 minutes long. The average project length is approximately. 20 to 30 secs long)

Is there another way to use the audio voiceover with CT5 other than the SoundFX function?

Thanks,
Jon

Are you saying that your voiceover file is much longer than the individual project? Just trying to understand.

If so, why don’t you split the voice file up to suit the length of each project.

Another option is to render the animations without the voiceover file and then assemble it in a video editor.
