Masquerade 2.0
Digital Domain presented version 2.0 of Masquerade, its in-house facial-capture system. The technology had been used to help create Thanos for Avengers: Infinity War and was also positioned for game-character production.
Masquerade was designed to reproduce facial detail including wrinkles as well as lip and eye movement. These signals could support more nuanced performances for digital characters, but production teams should evaluate capture requirements, retargeting and final-shot quality with representative material before committing to a pipeline.
