Um, this isn’t a real lady. Like, whoa:
“Extraordinarily lifelike characters are to begin appearing in films and
computer games thanks to a new type of animation technology.
Emily– the woman in the above animation– was produced using a new
modeling technology that enables the most minute details of a facial
expression to be captured and recreated.

perception that animation looks less realistic as it approaches human
likeness.”
