Leila – Facial Motion Capture

My fellow student Thomas Heller and I are currently working on a term project called Low-Budget Facial Motion Capture, and Leila is the head model I have created for that purpose. Our goal is to achieve acceptable animation performance with very cheap cameras and a quite simple capturing setup.
I will explain the procedure in detail, when the project is finished. Until then I can show you the finished head model, where I had to ensure good deformation through a nice edge flow and clean topology. Thomas also made a test rig using 2D capture data, which worked pretty well and can be watched below.
