Double Project at the Show

The last few weeks of stress, problems and hard work most definitely paid off tonight. I was so pleased with the final result of my project the blended face worked so much better than the original blocky effect. I think I got the feathering just right all the features blended into the face about as well as I think i was going to get them. It wasn’t quite as perfect as that of monoface but I think the fact that i used different ethnicity’s making the blending more difficult. For example whenever Aadam’s facial features pop up it looks like someone beat up Matt and gave him a case of severe bruising. The only real problem I had on the night was the sketch had a habit of crashing quite frequently meaning it took about 3 mins for it to load back up again because of all the image being loaded in. I couldn’t figure out why it did this at first but realised it was when people repeatedly pressed the save picture button it was too much for the computer to handle meaning the sketch crashed. I think I should have maybe put a note up or made the save pad a different colour so people knew not to press it over and over again. There are a few things i would have liked to have done differently if I had had a little bit more time. I realised that with using Matt’s face as the background even with female facial features on top the face never looked female. I did attempt to try it with other faces as the background but the features weren’t aligned properly. what I should have done when taking the pictures was to use a tripod and make sure each person was in the exact same position. Another thing I would have liked to do was have more pads so I could change the actual face and possibly the neck and shoulders as well. Here is a quicktime file I made of all the images captured on the night.
