Morphing two images together involves software that detects and blends similar facial features. There are various ways to combine images, but morphing creates a new image that blends the characteristics of the originals. It is often used with photographs of faces and can be done with many programs and applications.
The ability to transform two images together is facilitated by software that recognizes similar characteristics, usually in two photographs showing only the subject’s face. The various facial features are detected and their edges are found. The two photographs are scaled to be equivalent, and the shapes of the features are converted to geometric shapes and then averaged, with the dimensions adjusted. The colors of each element are also averaged and a new face is displayed.
There are several ways to combine two images: you can create a transparent GIF and superimpose it on the second; you can cut out an element of one and superimpose it on the second; or you could put them in separate layers of the same file and alter the transparency so that elements of both are visible. Morphing two images together is distinctive because it combines the characteristics of the two images to create a new image where each element is a blend of the originals.
Morphing is often done with photographs of faces. Unlike other ways of combining two images, when photos are transformed, every facial feature – eyes, nose, mouth, hair, chin, cheeks, eyebrows, etc. – is a mixed plot of the two original photographs. It is also possible to have an animated image of two images. In this case, viewers see the two faces transition into the blended face.
People like to transform photographs of celebrities. There is also interest in seeing how one’s own photograph or a friend’s photograph would combine with a celebrity face. Another popular option is to see what a couple’s child might look like, which also involves age transformation and alteration.
There are many programs and applications available to transform two images together. Many programs are shareware or freeware. People can also find specific licensed applications to morph. Another approach is to use multifaceted design software that has many features of which morphing is one.
