Get Live Face app for free here (opens in new tab).While it's not perfect (Apple, please fix the separate eyebrow tracking!), it can produce decent results quickly and with minimal post cleanup. IPhone X/Live Face is a stable, efficient and easy-to-use facial mocap approach, and is a practical addition to the animator's toolbox. In fact, the combined cost of the phone and software is about the same as for iClone's existing Faceware system. Even with the cost of the iPhone itself, this is good value for a robust facial mocap solution. There's no denying that the iPhone X (opens in new tab) is expensive, and assuming you already have iClone 7 and the Motion LIVE integrated mocap plugin, it will cost about £230 for the software to use the phone for facial mocap in iClone.
