Amazingly realistic CGI
The team at Image Metrics – who produced the animation for Grand Theft Auto – claim to have overcome the “uncanny valley” in producing computer-generated animated human faces which don’t weird us all out. The video evidence (see here) is pretty extraordinary but is this just a more advanced form of rotoscoping (it all begins with a video of a real person talking apparently)?
