Sequence 1:
9 control points
|
|
|
| Notice how in some areas, where there are no control points, this
morph looks like a cross fade. It is particularly noticable on the top
lip, the shirt, the right ear and the right side of the head. |
Sequence 2:
35 control points
|
|
|
| Notice how the lips are more "in focus" since there are more control
points in the lip area. Also, the right ear "grows" out of the side of my
head during the sequence, since there are now control points on the right ear.
However, there are still not enough control points on the right side of the head.
Also, I didn't change the control points on the top of the head, but because
of the additional control points in other areas, the top of the head actually
looks worse than with only 9 control points.
|
Sequence 3:
25 control points
|
|
|
| I didn't really play around with the number of control points on this
sequence. There's still some serious problems, particularly around the eyes
and the lips. But this sequence was just for fun.
|
Sequence 4:
21 control points
|
|
|
| I'm really happy with how the outline of the face and the eye and nose area turned out on this sequence. Nothing was done on the ears though, so this is strictly a cross fade there.
|
Sequence 5:
41 control points
|
|
|
| Generally, this is an excellent morph. Two things to point out, resulting from using a lot of control points. First the frame of the glasses appears a bit blocky since it is being stretched by the transformation. Second, the
right ear appears to grow and then shrink (since the space between control points on that side of the head goes from large in the initial image to small in the final image).

Sequence 6:
20 control points
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This loop between 4 cats (which can be continuously played with
no seams uses 20 control points, mainly around the heads of the cats, the
nose and the eyes. It does a remarkably good job of morphing. The only
artifact that appears is between cat 4 and cat 1 at the end of the video.
The morph between these cats is drastic enough that the edge pixel is repeated
multiple times (a design decision I made), which looks kind of ugly.
|
Sequence 7:
24 control points
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This loop uses 24 control points, the same 20 as above, with one
additional point at each corner of the image (so edge pixels don't repeat as
much). Notice this causes some strange "stretching" effects in the image.
|
Sequence 8:
16 control points
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This sequence is the same as the 20 control point sequence, except
there are no control points on the cats' noses. Thus the nose appears to
be more or less a cross fade between images.
