Exhibit A
1. If the D-ID Product is the Speaking Portraits Product:
Guidelines for images to be processed by the Speaking Portraits Product:
Minimum face size 150×150 px.
The boundaries between the head and the image’s edge should be of at least 30% margin (from all sides). In case there are not enough margins, the process will automatically add black padding around the image.
Head pose: frontal.
Avoid face occlusions, wearables and accessories in the head and neck areas.
Good image quality (not dark, blurry, or noisy).
Preferably solid background color.
Preferably no facial hair (beard and mustache).
2. If the D-ID Product is the Live Portraits Product: D-ID will deliver its Live Portrait technology via a REST API, enabling the animation of still images, based on predetermined video “drivers” provided by D-ID. The animated video output resolution will be 512×512 px, cropped around the head area, compressed into a MP4 format.
Once the API documentation and credentials are delivered, D-ID will escort and advise User’s development process for a period of up to 2 weeks.
a Guidelines for images to be processed by the Live Portrait Product:
a.1 Minimum requirements: 1. Minimum face size 100×100 px. 2. The boundaries between the head and the image’s edge should be of at least 10% margin (from all sides). In case there are not enough margins, the process will automatically add black padding around the image. 3. Head pose: frontal + up to +/- 20 degrees yaw & roll and +/- 15 degrees pitch. 4. No face occlusions. 5. Reasonable image quality (not dark, not blurry or noisy).Minimum face size 100×100 px.
a.2 Best practice: The following guidelines are not mandatory but are strongly recommended in order to produce better looking results. Best results are achieved for “passport like” images.
Minimum face size 150×150 px.
Image head-boundaries should be of at least 30% margin (from all sides).
Head pose: frontal + up to +/- 15 deg yaw & roll and +/- 10 deg pitch.
Avoid face occlusions, wearables and accessories in the head area, including eyeglasses.
Solid background color.
Neutral facial expression or closed mouth.
Minimum facial hair (beard and mustache).
b Guidelines for Driver videos creation (if applicable):
Filming best practices
Lighting
Indoor- Daylight Unified lighting: no shadows and no light reflections
Frame rate
15 – 30 FPS (affecting linearly on processing time)
Head pose
Frontal pose + up to +/- 25 deg for yaw & roll, and up to 15 deg for pitch
Background
Static and solid color background
Occlusions
No face occlusions, including eyeglasses or hair over the face
Facial Hair
Preferably no beard and mustache
Margins
Margins from the head to the frame boundaries should be at least 30%
Position
Locate the head in the center of the frame where the whole upper body is captured – from the chest to the hair
Facial expressions
Soft and gentle expressions, it is recommended to not expose teeth at this stage
Camera location
The camera should have a static position and remain stable during the entire film, preferably at the same height of the driver’s nose
Resolution
Preferably FullHD-1080p while the driver’s face size is ~25% of the frame
Drivers amount
Recommended to film several different persons, males and females, well spread with different age and face shape, in order to let the algorithm choose wisely the best matched driver for each puppet
Infinite loop
In case it’s relevant, make sure to strictly limit the driver’s movements including eyes-blinking at the first second and the last second of the video. That way it could be seamlessly reversed to the exact beginning position, and started over again, repeatedly, unlimited times.
