Animation– Rigid Links Hierarchical animation Use FK or IK to animate Interpolate between key frames
Facial animation Parameterized facial attributues Blend shapes Muscle models surface muscles deep muscles Performance (or data) driven instrumented (mocap system) video capture
Parameterized Facial features Also see http://www.facegen.com/
