Animating facial images with drawings

The work presented here describes the power of 2D animation with texture mapping controlled by line drawings. Animation is specifically intended for facial animation and not restricted by human lace. We have initially a sequence of facial images which are taken from a.video sequence of the same face and an image of another face to be animated. The aim is to animate the face image with the same expressions as those of the given sequence. This; work encourages the reuse of animated motion by gathering facial motion sequences into a database. Furthermore, by using motion sequences of a human face, non-human characters can be animated realistically or complex characters can be animated by the help of motion sequences of simpler characters.
