You can also record eye movements and store an expression for a 3D avatar to match your expression. You can also animate with joysticks, sliders, and keypads.
Use facerig for facial animation software#
It's still pretty new and has some issues (particularly if you are stuck wearing glasses like me), but there's good potential. This software like FaceRig allows you to record facial movements offline without needing to stream to Maya. It then copies your facial movements in real time to an avatar or your choosing. Answer: First you have to track the human face using a model of the human face (a generic model will do, does not have to be specific to the person). It's a software that uses your webcam for facial recognition, sort of like how they motion-capture faces for animated movies, but without the need for white dots stuck to your face. Oh, and we should probably explain what Facerig IS for everyone else. In addition, it has many other functions, for example, you can create facial animation, body animation, record video, real-time online interaction, meeting chat, etc. In VTuber, we can add different effects to the avatar, and quickly share it through other platforms and show it on YouTube. Although they would need to be distributed somewhere other than Steam workshop, as from the looks of it, the devs are being VERY strict about copyrighted characters in there. VTuber Maker will be the best facerig alternative.
Use facerig for facial animation how to#
If someone who knew how to code/adapt it for Facerig teamed up with BabyFawnLeg's, it's definitely possible. And actually, since BabyFawnLeg's new "hero mode" Homestuck playset has fully posable faces on the characters, alot of the work is already underway. I picked up Facerig myself too, and had a similar thought.
