We don’t see much of the facial performance capture in movies as it requires a lot of effort. You have to record an actor making all kinds of facial expressions in different conditions frequently for training a capture system to match expressions, which is kind of difficult for a studio that doesn’t have much money. Disney Research has found a solution for this. It has developed a facial capture system that would dramatically reduce effort and time to capture facial expressions. With the facial…

As a result of the rapidly declining cost of computing power in the 1980’s and 1990’s, visual effects technologies encountered an unprecedented period of rapid growth, innovation and improvement. This period of advancement bled-over into the 2000’s with the rise of consumer and prosumer software programs, which were becoming more and more intuitive, while still remaining cost effective for smaller productions. The science fiction genre changed rapidly throughout the 2000’s, as a result of new…

• During 1964 and 1965, Bledsoe, along with Helen Chan and Charles Bisson, worked on using the computer to recognize human faces (Bledsoe 1966a, 1966b; Bledsoe and Chan 1965).
