Abstract

This paper describes a new method for generating facial animation in which facial expression and shape can be changed simultaneously in real time. A 2D parameter space independent of facial shape is defined, on which facial expressions are superimposed so that the expressions can be applied to various facial shapes. A facial model is transformed by a bilinear interpolation, which enables a rapid change in facial expression with metamorphosis. The practical efficiency of this method has been demonstrated by a real-time animation system based on this method in live theater.
