Hi, thanks for the reply. This is for animation clips (.anim files) to drop into Unity TImeline, not for the final images. I want to layer it in Timeline with avatar masks, so need a humanoid animation clip.
Then Jake rolls down in his wheelchair and we cut to him being transformed into an Avatar, a big blue creature with a tail and yellow eyes. The rest of the clips show Jake on Pandora, fighting scary dinosaur-like creatures and meeting Neytiri (voiced by Zoe Saldana). You can see some of this in the teaser trailer available here.
I agree with you, PCN, on the emotional aspect of the scenes that were a part of the free Avatar screening. Although, given his track record (which you noted well) Cameron knows how to make his films resonate and reach the audience. But, I think last evening was more to dazzle with the technology that was showcased.
PCN, did you have 3D trailers at your screening? We did, and the Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and the Alice in Wonderland trailers were worth the drive to South Gate, alone. Those are going to be a blast, too. Thanks.

Custom text to speech avatar model building requires training on a video recording of a real human speaking. This person is the avatar talent. You must get sufficient consent under all relevant laws and regulations from the avatar talent to create a custom avatar from their talent's image or likeness. Refer to Get consent file from the avatar talent to learn requirement of consent statement video.
The custom text to speech avatar doesn't support customization of clothes or looks. Therefore, it's essential to carefully design and prepare the avatar's appearance when recording the training data. Consider the following tips:
In the near future, digital avatars will become a critical representation of our real selves, as we interact more and more in wholly virtual spaces - which is why several platforms are now trying to come up with the best 3D avatar tools to better align people with their apps.
Which could be interesting - but as noted, the real impetus here is staying in touch with the next phase of digital connection, and building avatar tools that will increasingly align with habitual usage shifts, while also helping to maintain connection with your presence in each app.
Though I suspect, eventually, it will come down to the most functional avatar creation tools, the most customizable and best looking, and the most universally available, with the capacity to take your character with you across apps and platforms.
Show off your Avatar spirit with your favorite bending symbol! This is a listing for one pair of hair clips. You can get any 2 of the bending symbols, or make a combo pair (ex: Waterbending and Firebending clips)
Needing just that little extra to punch up your avatar? Have hair and need to tie it down? Don't have hair and want to make up for that by gluing something to your hairless scalp? Then these might just be the clips for you! Modelled entirely from virgin, hand picked, organically grown and assembled verticies in a local Blender sweatshop by our crack team of novice polygon wranglers, these lovely little clips with real open/close functionality are sure to dazzle even the hardest, darkest of hearts.
Each of our fine selection comes complete with all versions of that clip style included in one clean, quiet, and well behaved Unity file. Don't use Unity? No problem! These also come with the raw FBX file, and textures. A simple blendshape controls the open/close of the clip itself, allowing you to animate a smooth sequence, or just position things exactly how you want and need!
The Oscar-winning composer James Horner, who has died in a plane crash, wrote the music for Star Trek II aged 28 and went on to score films such as Aliens, Iris and Braveheart. We look back over his career in clips
Two new extended clips from James Cameron's Avatar have just come online and if the film wasn't almost three hours long you could probably cobble all the already-released footage and take the film all the way to its third act. What we've seen hasn't been bad and neither are these two new clips...for the most part. I like the first clip of Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) linking up with her banshee because it carries the avatar model to a species on Pandora, but then there's the clip which gives us our first real introduction to Giovanni Ribisi's character, Parker Selfridge. The clip is moving along fine as we learn more about Sigourney Weaver's character and how she clashes with the detached administrator, but then he names the mineral that we've heard about in the trailer, the mineral which goes for "$20 million a kilo". It's called "unobtanium." I really hope that's just slang and it has a real-sounding name because I'm just now getting used to einsteinium.
Click over to Cineplex to see the scene where Neytiri links up with her banshee, click over to MSN to see the clip where we cringe at the word "unobtanium," and hit the jump for the film's official synopsis. Avatar hits theaters on December 18th.
We enter the alien world through the eyes of Jake Sully, a former Marine confined to a wheelchair. But despite his broken body, Jake is still a warrior at heart. He is recruited to travel light years to the human outpost on Pandora, where corporations are mining a rare mineral that is the key to solving Earth's energy crisis. Because the atmosphere of Pandora is toxic, they have created the Avatar Program, in which human "drivers" have their consciousness linked to an avatar, a remotely-controlled biological body that can survive in the lethal air. These avatars are genetically engineered hybrids of human DNA mixed with DNA from the natives of Pandora... the Na'vi.
Reborn in his avatar form, Jake can walk again. He is given a mission to infiltrate the Na'vi, who have become a major obstacle to mining the precious ore. But a beautiful Na'vi female, Neytiri, saves Jake's life, and this changes everything. Jake is taken in by her clan, and learns to become one of them, which involves many tests and adventures. As Jake's relationship with his reluctant teacher Neytiri deepens, he learns to respect the Na'vi way and finally takes his place among them. Soon he will face the ultimate test as he leads them in an epic battle that will decide nothing less than the fate of an entire world.
I am trying to retrieve bunch of images from an api. I want the images to be displayed in Circular form so I am using CircleAvatar Widget, but I keep getting images in square format. Here is a screenshot of images
You will need to use NetworkImage, AssetImage, FileImage, MemoryImage or something similar. You can't directly use Image.network, Image.asset or similar due to how Flutter architects its image classes.
backgroundImage in CircleAvatar expects to receive an ImageProvider as a parameter. However, Image.network and others don't directly extend the ImageProvider class, they merely extend the StatefulWidget class, even though they use NetworkImage inside. That is why you see in the other answers that ClipOval or ClipRRect is being used. These classes accept a Widget and so they're not as particular as CircleAvatar and similar classes are.
AspectRatio first tries the largest width permitted by the layout constraints(here the appbar). If I remove the padding image radius will be of appbar size. So add padding to control the size of circular image.
It took a few tries to figure this one out.. All these answers did not help me. In the end picture that I inserted into the circle avatar was stretched out to the boundaries of the container that was 2 instances above it. Maybe there are are people who, after going through the answers here, still have the problem that I had. I solved the constraint issue with a FittedBox
Came here as I also had the issue with CirclAvatar and AppBar, where the image would stretch in height. Instead of a radius, as I'm not able to provide it with the component I'm using, I just wrapped the image with a colum when used in appbar. This makes the image not stretch in height. This way I can always control size from the outside too
1. "Avatar" meets Disney: This spoof marries audio from 1995's "Pocahontas" with "Avatar" clips to make the case that the respective heros and heroines are interchangeable. By the time Vanessa Williams starts singing about blue moons and the irrelevancy of skin color (in "Colors of the Wind," the "Pocahontas" theme song) at 00:45, the two films seem to blur into one.
Modern deep learning-based video portrait generators render synthetic talking-head videos with impressive levels of photorealism, ushering in new user experiences such as videoconferencing with limited-bandwidth connectivity. Their safe adoption, however, requires a mechanism to verify if the rendered video is trustworthy. For instance, in videoconferencing we must identify cases when a synthetic video portrait uses the appearance of an individual without their consent. We term this task ''avatar fingerprinting''. We propose to tackle it by leveraging the observation that each person emotes in unique ways and has characteristic facial motion signatures. These signatures can be directly linked to the person ''driving'' a synthetic talking-head video. We learn an embedding in which the motion signatures derived from videos driven by one individual are clustered together, and pushed away from those of others, regardless of the facial appearance in the synthetic video. This embedding can serve as a tool to help verify authorized use of a synthetic talking-head video. Avatar fingerprinting algorithms will be critical as talking head generators become more ubiquitous, and yet no large scale datasets exist for this new task. Therefore, we contribute a large dataset of people delivering scripted and improvised short monologues, accompanied by synthetic videos in which we render videos of one person using the facial appearance of another. Since our dataset contains human subjects' facial data, we have taken many steps to ensure proper use and governance, including: IRB approval, informed consent prior to data capture, removing subject identity information, pre-specifying the subject matter that can be discussed in the videos, allowing subjects the freedom to revoke our access to their provided data at any point in future (and stipulating that interested third parties maintain current contact information with us so we can convey these changes to them). Lastly, we acknowledge the societal importance of introducing guardrails for the use of talking-head generation technology, and note that we present this work as a step towards trustworthy use of such technologies.
