The invention provides an image processing method and system wherein an
image is conceptually textured onto the surface of a three dimensional
shape via a projection thereonto. The shape and/or the image position are
then moved relative to each other, preferably by a rotation about one or
more axes of the shape, and a second projection taken of the textured
surface back to the image position to obtain a second, processed image.
The view displayed within the processed image will be seen to have
undergone an aspect ratio change as a result of the processing. The
invention is of particular use in simulating the small movements of
humans when speaking, and in particular of processing viseme images to
simulate such small movements when displayed as a sequence.
