The eyelashes are very distinctincly fake.
At least for me, thats an easy sign for the close ups of face.

The hair is way too perfect and light seems to be reflecting from every surface perfectly smoothly even the parts with bumpy textures, but it doesn't in real life.

this was on slashdot ages ago.

but still, they are impressive--even more impressive in light of the hardware it was done on.

some shots are good, some are, well... not as good.

i wish i had a graphics card that could support Doom 3. the graphics look amazing yet they're still a level removed in realism compared to this thing...

and wasnt there a movie about this? some actress being just a computer model.

	Tired of ads?

I like it but they still have a problem with facial expressions and the eyes in a few frames. It also looks fake when she's holding the baby; its like they didn't know what to do with ehr left hand so they just sort of super imposed it around the baby. Where her hand and the baby touch just doesn't seem to be right.

I like the texture they added to the super close in shots but the medium close shots still like kind of shiny. All in all it's a first rate job but still noticably CGI.

	Suffering from ads?

It is the way the light reflects off the skin that makes it look plastic. Also, the clothes don't lie right on the body. Impressive though. Maybe this will allow for better movies. Right now a lot of actors and actresses get parts for how they look and not how they act. By combining CGI looks with good acting for voice...... Well, one can only hope.

Good point.

I'd like to see how naturally they can animate it. I've seen so wonderful CGI still lifes that turn into very boxy and stiff animation.

Well Animation requires an order of magnitude more processing power than still lifes. (at least 30 still lifes per second - though 50 is much better)

Ahh, I found the movie clips on the web site. "Test 3" is very life like and believable right up until she smiles and you see an obviously CGI set of teeth and "movie sample 1" is first rate with no obvious give aways (though the hair near her face is blowing way more then the rest of her hair). "Movie sample 2" is the worst with jerky animation, poor facial expressions, and her hand ill proportioned. I mean it was way to big for her face.

It's the lighting in general, but we'll take your answer. Two other points to note with the lighting is that she's standing in the shadow of the hill, so she shouldn't be lit up like that. Two, the sun is on her right, but the majority of the light on her is on her front left.

I hate to disagree (well, maybe not ), but that light could have been obtained in other ways. The real problem is the hair - no way that it's for real.

The smile and the eyes are also a little creepy - nonhuman, but then it's a woman (ouch - i'm already ducking my head).

Nikolai stated that the eyes was weird, yes, but they are not empty - i'we seen worse in real life.
