Masquerade 2.0 is the next iteration of Digital Domain’s in-house facial capture system, rebuilt from the ground up to bring feature film quality characters to next-gen games, episodics and commercials. The same technology used to create Thanos in “Avengers: Infinity War” can now be applied to smaller projects, bringing the full depth and emotion of an actor’s performance to any screen.
It produces the highest fidelity facial animation at unprecedented speed and with less initial setup, without limiting actors’ on-set movement. This freedom has helped Digital Domain bring emotive characters to high-end projects, including Hollywood blockbusters, real-time TED talks and TIME’s recent recreation of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
