Is it only me who noticed how teeth appears absolutely out of nowhere when people smile on the demo footage? And it looks not facinating. It looks horryfying.

Probably because of falling into the uncanny valley [0].

- revolvingocelot 4y agoIndeed, this one example makes me want to eat garlic with every meal and hang crosses over all the doorways: https://film-net.github.io/static/images/000628/interpolated-2s.mp4 https://film-net.github.io/static/images/000628/interpolated... Don't get me wrong, it's an incredible feat, and seems to handily beat the other automagic interpolators (eg, 3:49 in the video at the bottom of TFA) in terms of minimizing "pop-in", but it's still clearly present in dentition.

- AlexandrB 4y agoYou can also see a lot of distortion on the left side of the frame here as ear comes into frame: https://film-net.github.io/static/images/000032/interpolated-2s.mp4 https://film-net.github.io/static/images/000032/interpolated... Would be interesting to see if this can be made more context sensitive - i.e. algorithm recognizes this as a person's head and fills in details more intelligently.
- Firmwarrior 4y agoha, I'm glad you pointed that out. I didn't notice it at all and was actually thinking about what an amazing application that last transition was I was going to download this thing and generate a bunch of samples to send to my family tomorrow, possibly dumping them right into the uncanny valley and being too unobservant to notice I was doing it
- aidenn0 4y agoWow, it looks like the teeth don't move with the head, uncanny indeed.
