     Using MMD, PC users can easily program how a 3-D model moves its hands, arms, legs, lips, and so on. To make a music video, users simply add a song and sync the model’s movements to the beat and lyrics. Although MMD lacks versatility compared to expensive commercial tools, it has the essential advantage that the 3-D model immediately moves according to whatever movements you specify, making it very easy to use.
