Flash: Dynamically overlaying a face (exter. JPG) to a video

posted on 26/10/2007

I have short 10-20sec. video(s) of a person dancing. (not a single video - the system needs to be generic - you'd do the development on your own sample video)

I need a system that would allow users to dynamically upload and overlay their own faces in place of the girl's face. And I need it to look as good as possible - as realistic as possible.

This would mean the following probably:

1) the user would first upload a photo of him-/herself

2) the user would then select her/his own face on the uploaded
photo (probably with an easy ellipsoid tool or possibly by
marking distinctive features on the photo - like chin,
forehead, left ear, right ear, etc.)

3) then I need a realistic method of overlaying that face instead
of the girl's face in the video (watch out - the face in the
video is obviously moving and turning so the uploaded face
needs to mimic those movements as best as it can)

This might be done via bump mapping and/or point tracking of distinctive facial elements on the photo and the video (ears, chin, forehead...)

I'd personaly would do it this way - place the 4 points on uploaded photo (top of the forehead, bottom of the chin, left ear, right ear) and then the same 4 points on the face of the person in the video (in every frame of the video). Then it would just be a matter of syncing the 4 points on the uploaded photo with the 4 points in the frames of the video.

This is NOT an animation project!!! This is a programming project and only people with real expert actionscript experience need apply!

A novice or an intermediate would not do - but an actionscript expert could probably make this within a day.

We unfortunately have a very limited budget! And its urgent.

Please quote me your price, time needed and describe how you would handle this problem + give me examples of your previous work.
