Present at conference from Prof. Carlos Thomaz at INESC Porto.

Title: A simple and efficient supervised method for spatially weighted PCA in Face Image Analysis.
I thought it could be interesting for my project to use in a new lip-sync method, or to give some expression to the puppets. But the conference was very focus in the image reconstruction with PCA components witch wasn’t very useful for me.

Working with Teatro de Marionetas do Porto gave me the privilege of working with someone who is a guide to my work.
I presented the project to the Art Director of Teatro de Marionetas do Porto, João Paulo Seara Cardoso that helped me in the Animatic Project and he will help me again. He his a great reference in the real world Marionettes a living book. I hope to learn many things with him, specially the art of puppets.
