Online photo effects and funny pictures: how we do it
Making face photo effects is a special kind of art, so let's get the ball rolling on basic points of the process. First, detection of main face features is required, such as nose, eye and mouth corners. If you want to animate a face, you have to specify a morphing function. For example, set the sequence of frames for smooth appearance of a smile. If all parameters are chosen correctly, you'll get a perfect result. But don’t worry, Cartoon.Pho.to will do all this for you in a couple of seconds.
Applying "picture to cartoon" effect (or, in other words, caricature drawing effect) requires edge detection on a picture. After that, the edges are thoroughly drawn, the number of colors on the picture is reduced and color transitions are smoothed.
That's the way all these marvelous photo effects are made. Do Facial Exercises and have fun!
