This is by far the most realistic facial animation I have ever seen! Not because you have the most realistic head model and rigging ever, but because you've manage to capture the real human mood! And believe me, I've seen my share of FaceRobot's videos for the past 6 months (I live 2 blocks away from SoftImage and have a NDA with them) and still, your animation is number one! Congrats!!!

Wow! The subtle eye twiches, the skin on the face, the eyes shifting as she speaks....I'm totally blown away.

Is this real or is this memorex? ;)
No way anybody can get the facial expression this humanlike. You have to be GOD of 3d modeling to get she this captivating to look at.

Phenomenal Work. This definitely makes me want to push myself beyond what I am doing now in 3D as a Game Development student. If their is any advice you'd like to give me, I'd totally appreciate hearing from you, Steve. Keep up the awesome work!

For most 3D. up to now can be described as Chinese slang:
One sound not make;
Two eyes no life;
Three meals never eat;
Four limbs neither move;
Five features (means facial features)distorted;
Six kins can't recognise;
Seven senses not channeled;
Eight sides look pretty;
nye (nine) ever moved;
Ten times useless:
Until I see your animation, great job! I hope you should write a book on this!

Nice expression
by Mana

Very nice... only thing that would need to be tweaked is the instant return to home position. That is what takes it from almost real to creepily almost real. Too perfect.

Ive seen better ones
Theres something wrong bout it

This is truly awesome. I play around with 3D modelling myself, and I've learned how hard it is to make something look even remotely human. Because the human face is the thing we spend most of our time looking at, it's the hardest thing to model, because any tiny mistakes or imperfections will be spotted instantly. Now, I don't even try. I stick to objects, and any people I do model have helmets of some sort so I don't have to model their faces. This, however, is stunning. Major props to you.
