Hair

  • Long hair must be at the back of the body. The shoulders and collarbones must be fully visible.

  • Hair must not cover the face of the model.

  • The model’s hair should be gathered together. Hair strands floating around the image are not permissible. Try the best to avoid capturing the model under windy conditions.

  • For images showing the model’s back, the hair must be tied to a bun or placed on the side to the front.

Location & Background

  • Studio shoot is highly recommended. It must be ensured that lighting conditions are optimal if they decide to capture images outdoors.

  • Plain background (with higher contrast to the model) is recommended for segmentation purposes. The model should be the only object visible in the image.

Lighting

  • Lighting should be symmetrical, showing a stark contrast to define the outlines of the model.

  • Minimize shadows and shades on the model. The skin must be even throughout the body.

Detailed lighting and camera settings will be available soon.


Initial Garment Specifications

This specification defines and illustrates the recommended garments that the model can wear during photo shooting. Initial garments depend on the desired outfit presentation, whether it is a full outfit (from tops and bottoms) or partial outfit (tops or bottoms)

Before selecting a set of initial garments, refer to the Garment 2D Input Data Specifications to check if they match the types of clothing that will be fitted to the avatar (e.g. swimwear, active wear, sleeveless dresses/tops, and so on).
