I&#8217;m Melinda Ozel, a Facial Systems Expert and consultant for all things face-related. My background originated in academia, migrated to tech, and now lives in the space between facial animation, behavioral science, and AI.<\/p><p>My recent work has focused on bringing AI to cinema. I served as Facial Expression Consultant on Robert Zemeckis&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm15482966\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><em>Here<\/em><\/strong><\/a> (2024), the first major studio film to use real-time generative de-aging, and as Lip Sync Expert on <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2025\/film\/news\/watch-the-skies-us-theatrical-release-ai-dubbing-1236343110\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><strong>Watch the Skies<\/strong> <\/em><\/a>(2025), the first theatrical feature to use AI-driven visual dubbing.<\/p><p>Before entering the film world, I spent years at Meta as a founding member of the Quest Pro face tracking team, where I defined the data collection protocols and annotation standards that brought <a href=\"https:\/\/about.fb.com\/news\/2022\/10\/meta-quest-pro-is-now-available\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>real-time facial expression to VR avatars<\/strong><\/a>. My expression tracking work at Meta secured <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/patents.justia.com\/inventor\/melinda-ozel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">three co-invented patents<\/a><\/strong> in avatar animation. On the consumer side, I advised the expressivity design of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/melindaozel_carereaction-facebookcare-productdesign-activity-6663885995966115840-xm7t?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop&amp;rcm=ACoAAAzr47wBQXaU05zq0GnjKAruQ50elKM709g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Care&#8221; reaction<\/a><\/strong> as well as the anatomical syntax behind Facebook&#8217;s entire Emoji smiley set, including Messenger and Newsfeed reactions for Emoji 3.0.<\/p><p>My studio and games work includes training and consulting for teams at <strong>Larian Studios<\/strong>, <strong>Blizzard<\/strong>, <strong>ILM<\/strong>, <strong>Netflix<\/strong>, and<strong> Epic Games<\/strong>, where I consulted on\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/melindaozel_research-metahumans-virtual-activity-6775821427007344640-NgpI\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MetaHuman<\/a><\/strong> facial variation and anatomical integrity. On the data and AI side, I&#8217;ve helped companies like Affectiva and Flawless AI build expression detection standards, model evaluation frameworks, and lip sync strategies from the ground up.<\/p><p>My expertise doesn&#8217;t end with human faces. I love working on animal facial expressions. I&#8217;ve been <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/04\/13\/arts\/television\/jane-goodall-apple-tv-series.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cited by the New York Times<\/a><\/strong> for my chimpanzee expression work on Apple TV&#8217;s <em>Jane<\/em>, which spanned rigging, modeling, and animation. I also built a capuchin Facial Action Coding System (capFACS) from scratch for Axis Studios on <em><a
