ICT Pioneers


 Today's focus was on the use of some amazing software called Morfo Booth. This enabled the pioneers to import pictures of characters relating to their current study of topic. Great names in history such as Charles Darwin or Queen Victoria. 

 Manipulation of the face, by selecting eyes, nose and mouth, enabled their chosen character to come to life.

Colour settings and lighting of the original photo enables shadows and facial blemishes to remain real.

 The finished result is that eyes move from side to side, voice recordings can by synced with the mouth and the face really comes alive.

 Even more creativity can be applied, but this is maybe slightly unfair to the great characters of history that the children selected!
