Ms Dewey - real life web search host.
« on: November 15, 2007, 05:31:59 pm »
This might be the future of search engines.  Ms Dewey is a real person that hosts a search service.  She is very amusing at times and performs a variety of skits for your amusement.  This is one of the best things I have seen for a while and I hope they expand her performances.

Go see...

Try leaving her to herself for a while and see her reactions...

Yes, she's been around for several years and I'd forgotten about it.

I spent several minutes of clicking on "Best of Ms Dewey"...it's hilarious!!

Ms Dewey is way better than Annanova as far as her personality.

Thanks for sharing!

I had never heard of Annanova, but I find she is no longer being shown and is 'under development'.

I found the 'Best ofs' hilarious too.

Glad you both liked her...

Annanova was probably the 1st 3D news broadcaster. One could select specific topics as I recall and
she would read them sometimes even displaying emotional responses to the articles.

Ms. Dewey looks similar to a very large MS Agent like SaraJane, in that her image bas based or taken
from a real person acting out each small clip then merged together. AnnaNova was just a nice 3D
generated model and not a motion cap from a human.

Have no fear Alady....Ms Dewey is real - like Art says it is all to do with clever video editing on the fly.

Here's a little more about the actress, her real name is Janina Gavankar and she is highly talented:
