EPIC has unveiled an enhanced AI-powered program that can transform your iPhone media content into an animation. First released in 2021, MetaHuman is a creator tool that helps developers generate more realistic human characters. 1 Now, Epic revealed that the animation tool can create realistic facial animations using users' iPhone-captured videos. The new tool was previewed on Wednesday during Epic's State of Unreal keynote at the Game Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco. Epic showed MetaHuman off via a live demonstration featuring actor and developer Melina Juergens, who is behind the video game Senua's Saga: Hellblade II. Melina recorded a video of her face on an iPhone and then a technician uploaded it, processed it, and automatically turned it automatically into a full animated sequence. The whole process took around 3 minutes - an impressive feat given that up until now it took months of work to accomplish the same thing. PC World noted that while the final product would still require a few more edits, at least 90 percent of the process is complete. "You don't even have to map it onto a MetaHuman modeled on that person's face — you can use it with any faces you have ready, whether photo-realistic or stylized and cartoonish," PC World reported. The revolutionary animator is expected to launch sometime in the summer. MetaHuman Creator is a free tool anyone can use to create their own digital humans. By using MetaHuman Creator, users can customize their digital avatar's hairstyle, facial features, height, body proportions, and more. One of the platform's key features is that MetaHumans can run in real-time.MetaHuman
