CUSTOM CAST

Make a 3D character

CUSTOM CAST is an entertainment app for people who want to build a 3D character, pose it for pictures or use it as a virtual streaming avatar. You can adjust appearance with options for hairstyles, clothes, skin colour, face types and accessories, then save multiple characters. Changing outfits or hair gives you another way to vary a saved design.

Pose, decorate and share

The app lets you take screenshots of your characters in different poses and expressions. You can add stickers and frames to those images, then share them on social media. This suits users who want to make character images as well as those who mainly want an avatar for streaming.

Use an avatar on stream

For virtual streaming, CUSTOM CAST can use the device camera to detect your face and make the character respond to movements such as turning or tilting your head. A gyro option can add movement, and Flicks let you trigger specific poses. These controls are intended to bring a created character into a live-streaming setup; the app’s description does not specify which streaming services are supported.
