Abstract

In terms of reducing efforts of an animator in creating facial animation keyframes we developed a system for automatic keyframe generation using MaxScript control script. Input parameter for the script is a parameter file containing phonemes of the prerecorded soundtrack and their durations. Recognition of phonemes is done by an LVQ neural network. After keyframes are created by the script, the animator is able to perform fine tuning and adding facial expressions of the emotions.
