Alex Haley grew up in Tennessee. He traced his family tree back to his original enslaved, African ancestor, then wrote 'Roots'. He received a Pulitzer Prize for it. Knoxville just banned it 'cause it might make white kids sad.

Fantastic work led by Devika Bodas, with key contributions from Marine Balcou, and a great collaboration with Lisa Scheunemann Lab, fearuting Şevval Demirci.
This video on Avatar 2/3 reignited this feeling: youtu.be/ueJTdtmZ5R4?.... Weta Workshop wanted to transfer actor faces to CGI Na'vi faces, which have different facial structure. So they built an anatomically inspired facial muscle model and fit it using gaussian splat meshes from video.
