[SchafeyWafey]

[nkingman]

[keltar2007]

down syndrome

[MultiFrank777]

yeah the other emily videos rule! lets face it video games arnt what weve seen in her other videos. i wish they were imagine shooting photoreal head @ point blank range.... duuuuuude!!! i mean if u look @ uncharted 2 the hair is pretty good on the girls but its still not there yet. game developers need to put more work in!!!

[Chellips]

This is sooo creepy the way they presented this! A disembodied face floating around DX Reminds me of the magic mirror in Shrek lol

[HeavenTorn]

It's the eyes; they look off.

[JudiG]

@HeavenTorn I think it's because they are her real eyes. Real eyes aren't even or identical. That's the part of this that is actually "real" for me.

[ocstuden]

Urgh it was in video games in 2007 jesus christ

[Kousaburo]

Ugly.

The Uncanny Valley at work.

[xalener]

@Kousaburo

You talk as if this shit's easy.

[Meteotrance]

could be more realistic animation on game like Shenmue or Heavy rain stuff and other Rockstar game like GTA or Red dead redemption.

[11Grayfox11]

Lighting, shadows, skin tone, facial expressions, reflections are near perfect.

[teetertoter3]

She keeps doing uneeded facial movements and it freaks me out.

[lesleyhenriquez]

You have no way of knowing if the actress was masturbating or constipated when they did this video.

[DoctorWeeTodd]

@teetertoter3 Therefore the uncanny valley has not yet been passed.

It's close though.

But check out the other videos of "Emily" and ImageMetrics. I couldn't even tell the real and the virtual apart in those.

[Suprasylph]

@teetertoter3 Everybody does "unneeded facial movements". 

[teetertoter3]

@Suprasylph Yes, but theirs aren't creepy. Heard of the uncanny valley? It's when it feels unhuman.

[3087208]

@teetertoter3 its a default. A pause in the system where makes a stupid face. Its all uncanny valley and unless they slow down the default they will neveer get over that hoop

[teetertoter3]

@3087208 You go through hoops, and uncanny valley is caused by our attempts to be too realistic. They tried to imitate human facial expressions, but were not subtle enough with it, which lead to this monstrosity. Subtleties are needed to create a grand masterpiece.

[MCJonny41]

Holy Shit..

Image Metrics is just awesome

[f00kumofo123]

stick finger in her nose and show her vagina talk

[Frienever]

cool

[MotherOfAllFluffbuns]

Wow! Give it two or three years, then this quality might actually appear in video games.

[HAWXF22]

@MotherOfAllFluffbuns

Well Halo: Reach is using Image Metrics for its facial animations.

[kylejp117]

it already has :)

[cxr111]

@MotherOfAllFluffbuns more like 5...

[supermariojackson]

Onlive could make this possible, but i hope before 2012 begin.

[bodyboarder3452]

0:13 i can't stop laughing her face just looks funny lol

[cryotwin]

Now are those animated normal maps or poses? And the shadow mask on the top corner is projected or unwrapped?

[MultiversalNomad]

This is good news, very good news indeed. Thanks for posting.
