How it's made: a real animated mesh stands behind the glass (from the side, from behind). An orthographic camera renders it into a height map (right), and the mirror's film bends to it, going soft through the mip levels like cloth. The map is redrawn only when she moves. Built with @threejs #WebGPU + TSL.
It's not glass.
Something on the other side found out.
It's touching back.
Would you touch it?

What they're wearing and their hair never change, so each portrait has one main texture plus a small atlas for its dead, zombie or demon faces, all in KTX2, compressed right on the GPU. Everything that never moves is baked into the model.
1/ A new challenge inside the #threejsJourney Halloween challenge: the living 3D portrait had to get much lighter, because many more will be watching.
Same look, but now a whole hallway of them takes less memory than one used to.

A frame atlas can't give smooth motion or real volume, and the 3D model doesn't have the texture of an oil painting yet. Which one do you like better?

In 3D, try Follow visitor: she moves only while he isn't looking.
Productive weekend on my #threejsjourney challenge entry, with plenty to share.
With @threejs I built a simplified copy of my hallway to test creepy portraits: a head-turn atlas cut from video, and a rigged 3D bust pushing out of the canvas (#TSL + #WebGPU).

Interactive found-footage horror on a cursed VHS tape. Look for clues. Try not to die. Don't look back.

Happy #TrailerTuesday !
Want to share the trailer of my horror game I creating. Don’t look back. Headphones on!
You don’t have to believe in ghosts. They already believe in you.
Some mysteries aren’t meant to be solved.
First #threejsJourney scene is done. Built in #blender, straight from the references. Teaser for interactive #threejs storytelling there.
🎧 Headphones on!
