2:36[00:00] hi so there's a lot of hype going around
[00:02] specifically around youtubers
[00:04] and iphone facial tracking and if you've
[00:06] been paying attention to my channel um
[00:08] maybe you have seen a couple videos
[00:10] covering that topic
[00:14] today's video we're going to be
[00:15] comparing iphone facial tracking
[00:18] in vc face versus the high quality
[00:20] facial tracking
[00:21] that you can get in easy face just using
[00:24] your webcam
[00:24] oh and stick around to the end of the
[00:26] video because there's going to be a
[00:27] bonus thing
[00:28] that i'm going to be telling you about
[00:29] and the link is actually not going to be
[00:31] in the description
[00:32] and the only way to get this um this
[00:35] cool thing
[00:35] is basically to pay attention to the end
[00:38] of the video
[00:38] [Music]
[00:43] before you export your model you need to
[00:45] make sure
[00:46] that your model has these extra settings
[00:49] enabled as i know sometimes some people
[00:51] skip them over
[00:52] but uh just have like the looks and the
[00:54] individual blanks
[00:55] set up here in vc face you have to go
[00:58] into
[00:59] the webcam settings and you have to
[01:01] actually enable
[01:02] the high quality tracking with wink
[01:06] support
[01:07] and here you can see a direct side by
[01:10] side comparison
[01:11] between iphone facial tracking as well
[01:14] as
[01:15] webcam facial tracking these are running
[01:17] at the same time
[01:18] in parallel and the only thing that i've
[01:21] modified is basically i
[01:23] disabled the head movement
[01:26] so that it's a lot easier to see the
[01:28] face
[01:30] and here i'm just expanding the video
[01:32] out
[01:33] just so that you can see hey i'm running
[01:35] two instances
[01:37] side by side now once again one thing i
[01:40] would really
[01:41] like to reiterate um those of you who
[01:45] follow me on twitch
[01:46] know this very well is that in no way do
[01:48] i ever advocate that you need to spend
[01:50] money in order to be a successful v
[01:51] tuber usually
[01:53] when people pop into my stream and
[01:54] they're like hey i'm thinking about
[01:55] getting this
[01:56] and yes it is it's one of those things
[01:58] that's definitely a nice to have
[02:00] but there are definite examples of
[02:02] people that have
[02:03] a png as their vtuber model and they're
[02:06] way more successful
[02:07] it's it's it's a it's a similar thing to
[02:09] what was happening a while ago where
[02:11] people would spend thousands and
[02:12] thousands of dollars
[02:14] on their cool streaming setup with like
[02:16] rgb lights expensive microphones set up
[02:17] before they even stream
[02:18] day one and then they're like where are
[02:20] all the people viewing
[02:22] the most valuable asset that you have in
[02:25] your streaming career on twitch or

[03:24] thing in particular that can be

[03:49] a really fancy headset like what i have
[03:51] to hold your iphone
[03:52] but instead they'll just have their
[03:54] iphone like either mounted to
[03:56] like their monitor or they'll have like
