  • generating data in digital form representing the configuration of the second facial display over a plurality of cinematic frames, generating data in digital form representing the configuration of the first facial display over a plurality of cinematic frames of said work, and altering under the control of both sets of said data and a programmed digital computer which provides numerical interpolation of lip distance data, the configuration of said first facial display to produce substantially the configuration of the second facial display.
