Abstract:


    The process for creating believable Facial animation is time consuming and tedious. We developed a tool-set, which dramatically reduces the time spent generating a high-quality facial animation setup with natural nonlinear skin deformations. The innovation in our approach consists of unusual employment of facial motion capture data and its adaptation.
