Is there anyone here who remembers...(1997) Cyber Cindy Premieres On MTV. MTV's first animated video jockey (VJ) made her debut performance in a 30 minute MTV U.S. special which aired in late June and early July. Cyber Cindy, named after Cindy Brolsma, the Beavis and Butt-head staffer who voices her, is a motion capture character filmed in real time, like a live actor. One of the benefits of motion capture technology is the relatively short production time needed. This special, for instance, was only two months in production, whereas if it had been produced in 2D animation (as it was originally conceived,) production could have taken up to a year or more. The special, featuring Cindy interacting with music videos, is a pilot which is being considered for a possible series.
id have been 10 or 11 in 97, but we didnt get mtv where i lived, so nope
So... like Max headroom?
Actually a little more like MST3K. Cindy would pop up over (and sometimes into) a video, occasionally mocking the performers. I recall her interrupting Hanson's "Mmmbop" to say, "...And where are the parents? They're at the bank! Cashin' the checks!"
