KeenTools - The Beta Version Of FaceTracker For Blender

KeenTools is a well-known developer of tools for VFX and CG artists, and it has recently introduced the open beta of FaceTracker for Blender. This new add-on is able to make high-quality facial motion capture and several enhancements more accessible to 3d artists. Read the article and check the video presentation to stay informed of the latest CGI news!

A Powerful Tool for Blender Users.

FaceTracker is designed to track faces and enhance them seamlessly with visual effects and simulations within the Blender environment. The tool links with the FaceBuilder module, where users can build heads, which should have head meshes supported by the topology of FaceBuilder. The combination of face tracking and model building makes it perfect for a job that needs accurate facial tracking and modification.

The key features of the FaceTracker add-on include:

  • Fast and accurate face tracking for realistic facial motion capture.
  • FaceBuilder integration is used to generate head models from photos or scans quickly.
  • 3D texture mapping, enabling advanced facial modifications like digital makeup, de-aging, and other cosmetic alterations.
  • FACS blend shapes export, a feature crucial for animators working with facial expressions in various pipelines.
  • An intuitive workflow designed to keep the creative process smooth and efficient, even for those new to the world of facial tracking.

An Open Beta with Full Feature Access.

This new great tool offers its users the chance to experiment with its features and integrate them into their workflow. KeenTools has also reset all trials for its FaceBuilder module, giving users the opportunity to access FaceBuilder’s full functionality as long as the version is in beta period. This will allow artists to test the face-building and tracking tools for free, providing valuable feedback.


Ready For Multiple Workflows.

Although FaceTracker is designed primarily for Blender, KeenTools has ensured that it can be smoothly integrated into larger production pipelines outside Blender. With features like FACS blendshapes export, the tool allows you to carry over their facial animations into other 3D applications, giving it versatility for studios working across multiple platforms.


Get Started with FaceTracker for Blender.

If you're ready to play with facial tracking and enhancement in Blender, the FaceTracker beta is now available for download. To help users get started, KeenTools provides a comprehensive guide and tutorials on the basics of facial tracking.
