Quote - You'd be hard-pressed to do high-quality animation in Poser alone, but that said, most high-level animation uses a number of programs, not just one. I use Poser (with Daz figures) to edit bvh motion capture, and adjust & compose the animation, adding the hand gestures, applying lip sync (from Mimic) etc., then render in Cinema 4D. You can judge if it's getting me anywhere:

Lots of other software gets involved, but I spend most of my time in Poser, animating. I think with the proper skills, one could do something decent using Poser in the process, that--while it wouldn't be a Pixar--I agree with Stallion that you might be able to make something good enough for television, or maybe some kind of online commercial product--at least, that's what I'm hoping, someday! ;-)
One of the best (and longest) poser animations I've ever had the pleasure to view. Outstanding work, considering the tools being used. In some ways, it reminds me of the old 70s star trek animated series.
