Automated Blend Shape Creation for Facial Motion Capture


Automated Blendshape Creation for Facial Motion Capture


The purpose of this work is to create a streamlined program for animators to create blendshapes of their face models for facial motion capture projects. Creating animations by manipulation of vertices or creating blendshapes by hand can be a very tedious process and an impractical one since vertex manipulation causes permanent change to the model. Having a tool to assist in the task and quicken the process will enable modelers to focus more on the actual creation of their characters.
