Runway Act II almost made me a good actor.

Almost...

CONTEXT:
+ This was a super complex test
+ Jack Nicholson is a maniac (so good)
+ The hands, the facial movements, etc
+ Would be hard for any tool (or actor)

ACT II IMPROVEMENTS:
+ Hand mocap is good (subtle errors)
+ The head movement is on point
+ Facial expressions are great
+ Eyes/eyebrows map almost perfectly
+ Lip sync slightly misses
+ But mimicking Jack's mouth is very hard.

In 1951, Adelbert Ames created the mind-boggling ‘Ames Window’. It’s so effective that even when you know how it works you can’t break the illusion

Twitter, can we do something amazing here? Our friends’ cat, Cuddles, has been missing in #SaffronWalden since Sat am. Very uncharacteristic. She’s not wearing a collar and could be sheltering from the heat in a garden/shed etc.
PLEASE HELP & RT! 🙏@MissingPetsGB @AnimalSearchUK

The power of a brand and its legacy of great advertising means your first reaction to an apparent typo from The @economist Intelligence Unit is no, no it’s not them – it must be me...
