Meet Emily...She's Unreal!
I've seen a lot of cool 3D work but this one is just "unreal"! Below is a 3D demo from Image Metrics. It is not obvious, but Emily, the actress in this demo is computer generated
Movies like Beowolf and Polar Express, and games like Halo 3 and Uncharted Drake's Fortune have done a great job showcasing how amazingly real computer generated graphics can be. But there is always something odd; faces look too molded, eyes look to glossy and creepy, etc. As many polygons they can render, they just don't feel human. Emily is different. She' s fluid, she seems human. The imaging capture technology appears to be the key. Let's hope before too long we will have this level of realism in games and other 3D applications.

Wow Bob you aren't kidding this is amazing very nicely done by Image Metrics. She doesn't look creepy at all the Polar Express characters looked animated to me. Emily doesn't very nicely done.
