Founded in 2000, Image Metrics is a leading provider of advanced facial animation technology and services to the videogame and feature film industries. The Company has invested over $14 million and 60 man-years in developing its proprietary technology, for which it has been granted a U.S. patent and has filed claims for four other patents. Image Metrics` proprietary software, algorithms and processes enable animators to cost effectively create lifelike human facial movements by processing digital video of an actor`s face. The process eliminates the need for expensive, time-consuming methods such as digital hand animation and motion capture, which are generally unable to match the realism, nuance and efficiency of Image Metrics` process.

* The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - Feature Film (2008 Academy Award for Best Visual Effects)
