Abstract
A method for automated computerized audio visual dubbing of a movie comprises (i) generating a three-dimensional head model of an actor in a movie, the head model being representative of specific facial features of the actor, and (ii) generating a three-dimensional head model of a dubber making target sounds for the actor, the dubber head model being representative of specific facial features of the dubber, as the target sounds are made. The method also comprises modifying at least a portion of the specific facial features of the actor head model according to the dubber head model such that the actor appears to be producing target sounds made by the dubber.
Claims36
A computer readable medium comprising instructions for causing a computer to carry out a method for automated computerized audio visual dubbing of a movie, said method comprising:
- (a) generating a three-dimensional head model of an actor in a movie for at least one frame in said movie, wherein said actor head model is representative of specific facial features of said actor in said frame;
- (b) generating a three-dimensional head model of a dubber making target sounds for said at least one frame in said movie, wherein said dubber head model is representative of specific facial features of said dubber, as said target sounds are made;
- and
- (c) modifying at least a portion of said specific facial features of said actor head model according to said dubber head model such that said actor appears to be producing said target sounds made by said dubber.
A method for audio visual dubbing of a movie, comprising:
- (a) generating a first model of an actor in a movie for at least one frame in said movie;
- (b) generating a second model of a dubber making target sounds for said at least one frame in said movie;
- and
- (c) modifying at least a portion of said first model according to said second model such that said actor appears to be producing said target sounds made by said dubber.
A system for audio visual dubbing of a movie, comprising:
- (a) means for generating a first model of an actor in a movie for at least one frame in said movie;
- (b) means for generating a second model of a dubber making target sounds for said at least one frame in said movie;
- and
- (c) means for modifying at least a portion of said first model according to said second model such that said actor appears to be producing said target sounds made by said dubber.
