Act-Two

Act-Two transfers a driving performance to a character image or video. The performance supplies speech, expression and movement. The choice of character input determines which motion controls are available.

Character images and videos give different control

With a character image, Act-Two can transfer hand and body gestures and adds environmental movement. With a character video, it keeps the source camera and scene motion while changing facial performance; gesture control is unavailable. A character video shorter than the performance loops forward and backward to fill the duration.Performance capture with Act-Two

Prepare the performance for the intended shot

Practical guidance. Choose a driving performance that matches the final scene’s timing. If the camera motion must stay fixed, check the video-input behavior before generating. Review lip movement, hands and the transition at any repeated segment before placing the result in an edited sequence.
