The first step in making the Animations for these tasks is creating the characters. The goal of the module is to measure facial emotions and body language, which means the characters themselves don't need to be amazingly detailed, and I don't need to waste time designing picture perfect characters.
Another point is that the characters need to match with the audio that I find for the task.
Take this character that I designed during the summer for example.
The Character itself is designed around the Character, Lorelei Gilmore from the Tv Show, Gilmore Girls. Portrayed by Lauren Graham
While there is very cartoonish caricature traits included (Large Head, Tiny Body) I've based the main resemblance around the face, the stern eyes and nose with the cheeky smile.
