facial motion capture at home capture studio

I am currently working on a personal motion capture studio. The main purpose is to establish an efficient pipeline for face animation in video game, capturing a correct range of motion for expressions and lypsinc, avoiding the traditional use of programming and automatic animation. I tried my best to get a reasonable result for a suitable workflow. The process is still in work.
