This paper summarises the techniques that were developed for facial modelling, tracking and puppetry. The process used for creating photo-realistic models from images of the face is discussed along with the creation of a real-time markerless facial feature tracker, highlighting the methods for extracting pose, detecting the shape of the mouth and interpreting the occurrence of skin wrinkling. The conversion of tracking data to useable animation is also addressed.10.2312/vvg.20031023
