MPEG-4　facial　animation　is　one　of　the　key　technologies　in　the　next　generation　model　based　on　compress　coding.　The　authors　present　an　entire　system　for　MPEG-4　facial　animation,　develop　a　method　that　begins　with　cylindrical　range　and　reflectance　data　acquired　by　a　Cyberware　3D　Scanner　and　construct　an　efficient　and　fully　functional　model　of　the　subject＇s　head　from　a　generic　mesh　model.　The　authors　combine　parameterized　mode　with　muscle　model　to　manipulate　the　subject＇s　head　model　and　then　synthesize　facial　expression.　Using　those　methods,　the　authors　get　a　good　result.
