Automatic muscle generation for physically-based facial animation

Physically-based animation techniques enable more realistic and accurate animation to be created. We present a fully physically-based approach for efficiently producing realistic-looking animations of facial movement, including animation of expressive ...

We present a muscle model and methods for muscle construction that allow to easily create animatable facial models from given face geometry. Using our editing tool, one can interactively specify coarse outlines of the muscles, which are then ...

This paper presents a novel facial animation retargeting system that is carefully designed to support the animator's workflow. Observation and analysis of the animators' often preferred process of key-frame animation with blendshape models informed our ...
