An Automatic Lip Synchronisation plugin for LightWave Jennifer Matlock Superviser: Shaun Bangay

The Problem CGI animation booming Character facial animation often nonrealistic Lots of lipsynch still hand-coded Mostly unnecessary Animation movements given when actor records vocal track

A Recent Example: Final Fantasy Huge budget Amazing special effects Great character modelling Huge losses Thin plot Bad character animation

The Solution Motion capture during voice track taping Full-face helmet Maximum detail Minimum interference Noninvasive marker system

Marker layout

Process Movie Plugin Stage 1 Point Database Plugin Stage 2 LightWave

Extensions Non-human faces Full-facial motion capture [not tongue] Extra tongue plugin Eye tracker
