MyHeritage updates popular Deep Nostalgia animations

Family history site MyHeritage is building off its popular “Deep Nostalgia” AI face animation technology with 10 additional animation styles. Since launching five weeks ago, more than 72 million family photos have been animated using 10 original “animation drivers,” available for free. The new 10 animations are available only to MyHeritage Complete plan members.
The 10 new special animations are:

    • Smile
    • Dance 1
    • Dance 2
    • Kiss
    • Thankful
    • Kiss and wink
    • Eyebrows
    • Approval
    • Sideways
    • Compassion

According to a MyHeritage blog post, this feature is based on different sequences of gestures tapplied to a photo, each originating from a pre-recorded driver video.
