Interesting to see a non-tech news source like TimesOnline heralding Image Metrics, I must admit Image Metrics does some amazing work but really its not as ground breaking as the TimesOnline makes it out to be.
If anything Image Metrics has simply added a layer of refinement onto existing mocap techniques, I honestly dont feel they’ve crossed any barrier yet, but they are getting closer. The eyes just look to flat and lifeless to me, but maybe I’m a tough sell having been exposed to so much animation.
