DAZStudio and Look at my hair animation question

This is my first quick experiment with lip sync animation using RawArt's Ape World 2 - Orangutan HD, Mimic Pro and Look at my Hair in DAZ Studio.

The hair is just attached to the figure, no extra animation, but it seems to fly all over the place. Anyone else have this problem and know of a workaround to get rid of this?

Actually I think that looks kinda cool like he is in front of a fan
I know you cannot animate LAMH but did not realize it would move on a talking figure!!!

Thanks, It kind of works for this test as it looks like wind, but it was not intentional. :)

A quick experiment with lip sync animation using RawArt's Ape World 2 - Chimp HD, Mimic Pro, Wildenlander HD for Genesis 2 Male and Look at my hair in DAZ Studio.

This time the hair appeared to not move with the figure so I had to remove the look at my hair stuff. :(

I love LAMH . But Wendy is right, you can't animate LMAH the regular way,. the only way to make animations with LAMH-plugin is to create your animation one render at a time and put them all together in a film editor to create your film that way and I'll be honest it takes a very long time to create a animation that way unless you are creating a flash animation in layers at 24 fps then that is not to bad to create animations with single png graphics because chances are you will only need a few renders to complete the animations like i did on my front page of my web site.

Thanks fr the tips Ivy,
I was trying Look at my hair because they came with the models.
Looks like I will have to recreate the hair in Carrara to animate it.
