We describe techniques used to create animations of song. Modifications to a text‐to‐audiovisual‐speech system have been made to take the extra information of timing and frequency of the lyrics from a MIDI file. Lip‐synchronized animations of song are then produced. We discuss differences between the production of speech and the production of song. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
