Abstract
A technology is described for simulating communication expressions detected in speech data using virtual objects. An example method may include receiving speech data for a virtual object configured to simulate communication expressions provided by the speech data. The speech data may be analyzed for an indicator of a communication expression and communication mark data that includes an expression tag representing the communication expression may be generated. The speech data and the communication mark data may be transmitted to a simulation client to enable synchronization of an animated expression for the virtual object with the speech data using the expression tag in the communication mark data.
