A method and system for synthesising a moving image, most particularly in synchronism with synthesised audio output, is disclosed. A configuration of a feature (e.g. a facial feature) in an image is defined by one or more parameters and the progress of transition of one value of a parameter to another is controlled by one or more predefined rules. The parameters for the audio and the video output are generated by respective transition tables from a source of sub-phonetic segment descriptors. The audio parameter transition table may be constructed in accordance with HMS principles. The video parameter transition table may be similarly constructed. The respective parameters are processed an audio engine and a video engine to generate an audio and an animated video output. A typical application is to produce a so-called talking head that might be used as a virtual television presenter.
