Audrey Hepburn's digital simulacrum astonishes in new chocolate ad

Here's the astonishing Galaxy chocolate advert featuring a CGI likeness of Hollywood icon Audrey Hepburn. Using a mix facial scans, 3D modeling and an understanding of the actresses' facial expressions, Framestore managed to pull off a credible chocolate advert that seems to have captured the feel and character of an Audrey Hepburn film. Sure, everything is a little too slick and shiny and repeated viewings will surely show some imperfections but this just shows off where we are in CG character creation today. Are you impressed or creeped out?
