  1. 1. Per-actor Based Optimization for Semantic-preserving Facial Rig Generation Using Sample Data

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Medie- och Informationsteknik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Josefine Klintberg; [2021]
    Keywords : blendshape optimization; facial rigging; deformation transfer; performance capture;

    Abstract : With high emphasis on the need of combining recent research and technology regarding automatic facial rig generation with the artistic aspect and the usage of digital humans within film production pipelines, this thesis project presents a scalable blendshape optimization framework that is adapted to fit within a VFX-pipeline, provides stability for various kinds of usage and makes the workflow of creating facial rigs more efficient. The framework successfully generates per-actor based facial rigs adapted towards sample data while ensuring that the semantics of the input rig are kept in the process. READ MORE
