15-463 Project 4: Face Morphing

Jason Israel (jaisrael)

For this project, the purpose was to create a video morph of my face into another stuedents face, and to also create a mean face given all of the faces in the class.

My approach did not deviate far from what was recommended in the project description. I manually created a list of corresponding control points for the images. For each frame of the video, I did an inverse mapping from each pixel to the corresponding pixel in the two images. The proportion of the colors from each image was determined by the warp fraction, which increased linearly as the frame number progressed.

I had some issues dealing with the correct orientation of the images; sometimes my results would come out transposed because I reversed the coordinates.
