I am having a task to create a 3D model face that can talk like humans.without having any knowledge about 3D modeling.

I have no clue where to start.I have searched a lot and find some of these things.OpenGL,WebGL,XNA and other similar tool can be helpful.

please guide me where to start a step by step approach and which platform is better as i have programming background in JAVA.
