Capture facial animation with nothing but your iPhone ! AnimStarter Face Mocap turns your iPhone's TrueDepth camera into a face-capture rig. Record your performance, watch the blendshapes fire live as you act, and export clean animation data that drops straight onto your own 3D character. You get a solid, structured baseline in seconds ; so you spend your energy refining the acting instead of keying mouths from scratch. Built for indie animators, studio artists, and students learning character animation alike. And the app is 100% free. HOW IT WORKS - IT'S SUPER SIMPLE 1. Record. Hit record and perform. Live blendshapes show your capture in real time. 2. Transfer. Send the files to your computer; you instantly get a video reference (.mov), clean audio (.wav), animation data (.asfm), and an optional math-corrected version (_solved.asfm). 3. Animate. Import into Autodesk Maya with the companion ASFM Importer, connect your rig once, save a reusable profile, and transfer. Next time: load profile, import, done. WHAT IT CAPTURES - 52 ARKit facial blendshapes at 60 FPS - Full head position and rotation (6 axes) - A synchronized video reference (.mov) - Uncompressed, perfectly aligned audio (.wav, 16-bit / 44.1kHz) for lip-sync MADE FOR ANIMATORS - Open .asfm format — a simple, documented CSV that's easy to read and retarget - Invert L/R to instantly match any rig's left/right convention - Companion Maya importer (available separately) for one-click retargeting and reusable rig profiles OPTIONAL VERTEX SOLVER - Refines mouth, jaw, cheeks and nose straight from the face mesh for cleaner shapes - Keeps eyes, eyelids and brows on ARKit's native tracking, where it's strongest - One quick calibration per performer and you're set PRIVATE BY DESIGN - 100% on-device — your recordings never leave your iPhone - No account, no cloud, no tracking Requires an iPhone with a TrueDepth front camera (Face ID).
