What Are Morphs?

Morphs are used in Poser to alter the shape of a Poser object. For example, if you want to open a character’s mouth, close the character’s eyes, or change the character’s shape, you turn a dial to make that happen. You are using morphs to accomplish those tasks. In the case of the Poser 8 figures as well as Victoria 4 or Michael 4 from DAZ3D or RuntimeDNA’s LaRoo2 product, the models are packed with morphs; so many, in fact, you can literally create anything from photorealistic to cartoon-like with a few tweaks of the dial. Figure 8.1 shows Michael 4 and a small portion of the face morphs that you can work with.

Figure 8.1. Figures such as DAZ3D’s Michael 4 come with accessory morph packs that help you create whatever character you would like.
