Technical producer [Nobumichi Asai](http://www.nobumichiasai.com/?ref=killscreen.com) has been working on [projection mapping](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection%5Fmapping?ref=killscreen.com) projects for some time, [such as this amazing project at a dockyard](http://vimeo.com/74444847?ref=killscreen.com). Projection mapping allows creators to turn strangely shaped objects into screens, and this time Asai has turned to the human face as his stage.

Title *Otome*, Asai’s new project takes the face of a woman speckled with matchmoving dots and transforms her from a face of normal makeup, to something entirely beyond. You may, in fact, recognize those dots from any behind-the-scenes looks at games like David Cage’s *[Beyond: Two Souls](http://killscreendaily.com/archive/tag/beyond-two-souls/?ref=killscreen.com)*. Cage used the CGI technique to capture the performances of Willem Dafoe and Ellen Page.

Asai’s work takes the concept one-step further, and it’s easy to see the implementation used for stage shows and elsewhere.
