Fynn Braren, the youngest start-up in the FTZ Digital Reality, has won the Young Talent Award at the NextReality contest 2020 with his Faceit software.
Faceit is an extension for the open-source 3D software Blender.
Faceit enables artists around the world and indie developers with a small budget to use any 3D character models in high-quality motion capture recordings. It uses the popular and cost-effective face tracking solution from the Augmented Reality Kit for iOS devices. The ARKit solution is one of the most popular worldwide and is used in mixed reality applications and game engines as well as in virtual film production.
Faceit makes it possible to create the required micro facial expressions in a semi-automatic process, saving artists weeks of work.
The programme was developed as part of my bachelor’s thesis and is currently unique on the market.
Faceit is available at blendermarket and gumroad.
