Abstract
A method of using a 3D polygonization operation to make a 2D picture show facial expression including the step of setting control points of a 2D picture as Z=0 or Z≡0 to form a meshed plain model, and the step of attaching the plain model thus obtained to the 2D picture.
Claims4
A method of using a predefined planar mesh operation to make a two-dimensional picture animated with facial expressions, comprising the steps of:
- setting control points of a two-dimensional picture on a Z=0 plane to form a meshed plane model;
- attaching the plane to the two-dimensional picture;
- and,
- using text-to-speech and motion capture techniques to change the positions of meshed points of said meshed plane models so as to achieve a continuous facial expression.
