A Japanese artist shows films on the faces of people. He found out that, showing films on symmetrical faces gave a Barbie doll effect. This made the film look false. Therefore, he preferred non symmetrical faces. All the films were inherited from traditional Japanese culture, technology and animation. In 2015, Japanese artist, Nobumichi Asai, and a team of creative developers produced a real-time face tracking and projection installation. This technology is called 3D projection-mapping. 3D projection-mapped films appeared on the surface of their skin. Glowing lines, ghoulish motifs and robotic montages are among many of the effects that adapt to the surface of skin of the model’s faces. The artist and his team were looking for funding to grow their work.
