I would like to see say 6 different face reconstruction specialists given the same skull to do their work then show us the six finished products just to see how different or the same they look
I agree with you 100% And I don’t mean to be one of those people to nit-pick at everything But I just wanted to, politely, let you know that the sculptor is a woman.
@@Jsin876 The commenter wasn't talking about the artist, they were referring to the man who was explaining the signs of facial trauma to the skull. He calls her a patient quite a bit.
Interesting comment, Natasha. I am a British physician - "Patients" are deemed to be those still amongst the living in the UK (& immediately after death). Those that have an historical narrative are indicated by their deceased status - so it is perhaps a (cultural) misnomer in identifying (& qualifying) the Craniofacial Surgical Reconstructionist as a, "real doc..." per se.... :)
They should x-ray a living person, 3d print the skull and then set them to task. They could then compare to a real living person not just an old photo.
They've done it on skulls of people and matched them up with real pictures of the person before they were deceased, thousands of times. That's how they figured out the process
I guess, but why not do it with the skull of a currently living person? I'd totally volunteer. I'd love to see how accurate someone can get to my face.
Has there ever been a challenge for these face reconstruction specialists to flesh out a skull that has been reconstructed from a scan of a living person, so that the reconstruction could be seen side by side with the actual person? If not, I do think it is a fair challenge, and one I would like to see.
Don't they use this to identify murder victims? And I know that when a face transplant happens the person will still look a lot more like themselves than their donors, so the skull is really important for the face.
That would be EXTREMELY cool and fascinating. They could do their thing up on stage, then their model walks out.....it would be perfect for a Discovery Channel special
rosenvitae So but first it would involve taking their skull, which is really hard to do Or you're saying to compare the model to the actual person (dead)
I did this in my anatomy labs all the time. Linking bone structures with your own body is a great way to help with memorization and also understanding of how the body is put together.
Have you ever considered an apprenticeship program? I would LOVE to do this for a living. I have a natural artistic talent and would find this work incredibly satisfying.
What unfortunate health these people endured. And recently in a relative sense; some of their lives almost overlapped with those of my own parents. Makes me feel mighty lucky to have been born when I was. I'll bet they weren't inclined to whinge and complain any more than people are today. The day to day violence and poverty of life in late 19th century NYC must've been horrible.
Having worked as an archaeologist at the AAC excavation I will forever appreciate the experience as a scientist but also as a human being. The facial reconstruction shown in this amazing video helps to tell the untold story of people who would otherwise be forgotten. Thank you NYSM. I will always treasure the opportunity to have played a tiny role in people of the Albany Almshouse story.
@@tylersanders6703 If you look at people in medieval Europe living in monasteries and nunneries (ie people who were well cared for in old age, were unlikely to die in childbirth/war, and had all necessities provided for them throughout life) they regularly lived to their 80s or even 90s. "Average" life expectancy is also skewed by the amount of people who died in childhood. It's just unfortunate for our ancestors that they lived in a time where death via trauma and now-treatable illness was a heck of a lot more common, and social care was less likely. But it's not like a 40 year old in the 1500s would be considered as old as an 80 year old now.
She looks like she was one tough, determined individual. Someone who I would definitely want on my side. This was fascinating and answered a lot of questions I have had about how they go about identifying a person's age, body structure, what sort of employment they might have had and of course their facial features.
boy have they come a long way with facial reconstruction since the filming of this clip. I watched a class reconstruct faces with clay, and their's looked more like actual faces rather than a skull dressed in a clay coat.
Thank you so much for this video! I’m going to be attending Edinboro University in the fall of 2020 with a major in Forensic Anthropology and a dual minor in Forensic Archaeology and Bio Forensics and this video makes me even more excited than I already am! I cannot wait to do this and so much more!
Wow your majors seem to be very interesting, I would love to study the same! Unfortunately in Spain we don't have that, but I'm a biology major and I choose to do my final thesis about this subject 🥰 I hope you are doing well and enjoying your studies so much!
Seeing this now makes me want to ask, how did it go? Considering well, what happened globally in 2020. I also began my studies in 2020 with Anthropology and Psychology and COVID ate up like 1&a half year. Had 0 practical work for that duration
I'd like to see someone do a facial reconstruction, and then have an actual picture displayed of the person to see how accurate it is. It seems there would be a lot of guess work around the lips and eyes.
I am very interested in this field. Thank you for this fascinating video. I want to become a 3d modeler hoping to find a background in forensic anthropology and medical illustration.
This is the most fascinating program I have watched on TH-cam ..the way you talked the way all through doing the lady was great it is nice to see the way it done and have it explained ..I would have loved to have done this sort of thing myself when I was younger ..life just passes by so fast..but I do still like learning new things and this was amazing to watch a person appear before your eyes..I do hope that she did have some nice times and her life was not always bad..But it is amazing to see life from the past become real and I am sure all the children who go to the museum will remember them more because they are looking into their faces..You do a very important job .
🌹🌹🌹Really very interesting and precisely done. Absolutely. I am very fond of the scientific explanations. A reconstruction also moving. We understand the life of the person. Many elements were talking. To my opinion, the nose was the most difficult part with the eyes. But the work done was very professional 👍🏻 I also loved to see the respect people all had for the human being in front of them. 🙏🏻🌹🌹🌹
We need more of this educational and comprehensible learning...I mean this is what I bring to the table...ALOT! THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONES SACRIFICES TO BRING THIS KNOWLEDGE TO US, THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!!
Great video! First time I’ve seen a step by step operation on a skull. Absolutely fascinating and presenter is calm and very clear in her explanations . Kudos to this artist!
Amazing work. Was captivated to see the whole process and all the expertees. This is my dream job. I worked in Archaeology as an Illustrator for 14 year. My work often involved human remains in the field work. Unfortunately, I didn't get the opportunity to work in this capacity, which I feel I would have thoroughly enjoyed! Loved it!
What I want to see is a reconstruction that can be compared to a photograph of the person in question. The sculptor, of course, must not be allowed to see this. There are so many possible variations in the soft tissues that the skull is no guide at all.
There were no photographs of this person. This is the whole point of Forensic Sculpture. Even in our modern times, if a skull is found, it falls to the Forensic Sculptor to bring the features of the dead to life. The skull IS, in fact, the only guide to facial reconstruction. It is the same in Taxidermy. There are given and known points on the skull, where muscles attach; where glands are contained. There are known depths for the muscle tissue, fascia, and skin. All this is gleaned form the skull, and from the research one puts into the learning and mastering of this field of sculpture. Anatomical knowledge is key to success. And please believe me when I tell you, it is SO MUCH easier to sculpt when you are not trying to explain what it is you are doing! ;)
John Bellucci I hate to be rude but you're just stating the obvious. What I would like to see is a facial reconstruction from a skull where the identity of the person is known and where photographs do exist. But of course this information must not be known to the person making the reconstruction. In other words a "bllind" experiment. But one that can actually be checked. Reconstructing historical figures is simple. Either no one really knows what they actually looked like (so the reconstructor can pretty much come up with anything) or we know pretty accurately what they looked like e.g. Henry VIII (so the reconstructor can just make sure the sculpture matches). I'm well aware of the theory but so far I've seen nothing that can really be verified. I'm suspicious of the fact that all of these reconstructions seem to bear a strange resemblance to each other.
mikelheron20 I've noticed it twice so far two different reconstructions pieces How much that the the Head looks like the sculpture Also where the remains were found and the time period in which these ppl lived and died It is denial to say they were laborers and maids Rather than which more likely slaves and prostitutes
Excellent video. I forwarded the video to the University of Dundee and to Dr. Sue Black OBE and Dr. Xanthe Mallett because of their work with forensic anthropology and historic facial reconstructions.
Fascinating. This was not what I was expecting when clicking on, but as a nurse, I enjoyed this seminar. Sad to think your model today was possibly someones Grandmother. Also, I thank-you for bringing those others forward for recognition.
Brilliant video indeed, thank you. I'm and old timer now and I think I may have missed my vocation in life. I''m a sculptor and have been sculpting the human form, and things equestrian, since I was four. Human anatomy has interested me since an early age, (I have 8 anatomy books, 2 medical, 1 for my profession and the rest art) but due to circumstances of life, which John Lennon referred to in a song written for his son Sean, "Life occurs between the plans you make," it was not to be. I learned anatomy when training to be an orthotic/prosthetic technician and have used it to improve my works, in terms of sculpting and drawing. Love to do a course on this if I could get a sponsor.
Very informative and interesting. One suggestion: try not to smooth the faces that much and try adding wrinkles and skin texture (in relation to skin directionality, distribution of facial fat in woman and man face in relation to the age etc) otherwise the face looks artificial. Usually your sculpts look better before the final stage (only the old black male is an exception).
wow, this is 6 years old, but I admire some rando in the comments trying to lecture a professional on how to do her job. Also, I'm in my 50s, and I don't have any visible wrinkles when my face is at rest - for forensic purposes, I'd argue it's better to be conservative with texturing/wrinkles, because it could distort someone's appearance more than their perhaps appearing a little bit younger. Personally, I thought they did a good job of the ageing, although I agree the final texture is a little plasticky - by now, finishing techniques might be a little more refined.
thank you for the video. the experts are great. gosh, i feel so bad for the people who past on. rest in perfect peace. they may have had a hard life on this Earth, however, they will have the glory in heaven.
To even off large surface areas when I sculpt, I use a Brayer or roller. I have several sizes to choose from for different sized areas, as well as being made from different materials ... rubber, wood, and plastic.
She appears worn and sad. She didn't deserve any of the physical pain she endured. Great job on this face. It shocked me she died in 1915 as my mother was born in 1917.
how do they test the accuracy of this process? it'll be more credible to me if for example, the artist is given a skull of someone and in the end they will show what the person actually looks like and compare it to the reconstruction... of course the artist must have no idea what that person looks like...
let me answer: there is no accuracy in this technique. besides in this case, this maam has no habilty at all. the result does not look like a credible realistic person or creature(at least). looks like a doll, an ugly doll
I think people who are sculptors would be more successful if they work in this field the face would be more realistic take Madam Tusaude's work she studied anatomy and made many realistic faces but she did see them first. But an artist would need more information.
Oscar Martinez check out the project at the new york academy of art and then answer again. your comment is disrespectful and ignorant, to say the very least
Brilliant video and not something you get to find out about normally. Painstaking work! Not sure I'd have the patience. 👏 Very interesting to see the finished product as a real person. Makes you wonder what sort of life they had. Very hard one would imagine.
After such a hard life I can't help but wonder if the lady of the first reconstruction might enjoy the fact that her face will become a little bit famous and be seen by thousands of people in a museum.
Ten reconstruction specialist should be given 10 similar copied skulls with jaw bone so we can see if what they do is accurate enough. They should be done in different places where the specialist does not know each other.
I have done some facial reconstruction. One thing that was always true with other reconstructionists is that they tend to include a similar "look" to the final product that is more similar to their own facial construction. As a result, their work is strangely "similar" as if each individual had the same mother or father. As in this video, and other people's work I have seen, there tends to be a strange familiar appearance to clearly different people and ethnic backgrounds. Following muscle locations and tissue thickness markers are fine as a rudimentary beginning, however, the "artist" must separate their vision from themselves so as NOT to include their unintentional inclusion of their own self. Also, these markers must not be misconstrued as factual which would ignore how people actually look in life.
This is fascinating. Thank you. I joined your channel, and have placed this video in several of my playlists to promote your channel and video. Have a lovely day.
Interesting video. It woul also appear that choosing the gradient of skin color is also very subjective. I find it interesting that the "dock worker" was portrayed as 'very pitch black oily skinned'; whereas the other minority specifimens were not shown as quite as dark. Colorism abounds........
A cold case was solved this way many years ago. A specialist used the skull of a Jane Doe in Missouri and found out she was a 15-year African-American girl... using the reconstruction someone could identify her and the case was eventually solved. Quite amazing.
Watched for over an hour and couldn't wait to see how she turned out, then had to freeze the footage as we only got to see her face for a couple of seconds and her head rotated in one direction... Wow, bummer much.
I would like to see say 6 different face reconstruction specialists given the same skull to do their work then show us the six finished products just to see how different or the same they look

Ten reconstruction specialist should be given 10 similar copied skulls with jaw bone so we can see if what they do is accurate enough. They should be done in different places where the specialist does not know each other.
I have done some facial reconstruction. One thing that was always true with other reconstructionists is that they tend to include a similar "look" to the final product that is more similar to their own facial construction. As a result, their work is strangely "similar" as if each individual had the same mother or father.
As in this video, and other people's work I have seen, there tends to be a strange familiar appearance to clearly different people and ethnic backgrounds. Following muscle locations and tissue thickness markers are fine as a rudimentary beginning, however, the "artist" must separate their vision from themselves so as NOT to include their unintentional inclusion of their own self. Also, these markers must not be misconstrued as factual which would ignore how people actually look in life.
instead of doing my homework I learn how to do facial reconstruction. great.
Bravo! More! More! Oh, what would I give to be able to do this. Fantastic.
Very, very well done!!
Who would literally name their child gay marlin
This is really sad but also fascinating what science can do
Wow! a wonderful video! Thoroughly enjoyed!!
So we can assume she had a fatal injury on the center-right front area of her skull? How do you think she died?
Incredible video, I have learnt a few things more in life.
This is fascinating. Thank you.
I joined your channel, and have placed this video in several of my playlists to promote your channel and video.
Have a lovely day.
I enjoy the mournful 'grave-grinner' music that plays throughout this presentation.
Absolutely fascinating.
Very interesting to see Science meeting art.
You’re a queen, Gay Malin
Thank you for sharing this interesting video!
Absolutely fascinating!
If she died Approx. 1915, how is that 300 years ago as the description stated?
Interesting video. It woul also appear that choosing the gradient of skin color is also very subjective. I find it interesting that the "dock worker" was portrayed as 'very pitch black oily skinned'; whereas the other minority specifimens were not shown as quite as dark. Colorism abounds........
Trojanette83 you shouldn’t blame her she prob doesn’t know how to paint black people
A cold case was solved this way many years ago. A specialist used the skull of a Jane Doe in Missouri and found out she was a 15-year African-American girl... using the reconstruction someone could identify her and the case was eventually solved. Quite amazing.
Very interesting! Thanks for sharing!
Was very interesting and enjoyed watching this.
Fascinating!
Does this depth marker make my chin look fat?
She looks amazing
Fascinating and sad that we don't know these people's names... they had hard lives. Much as I love history, I'm very glad to not have lived back then.
Fascinating.
You are amazing...thank you.
Watched for over an hour and couldn't wait to see how she turned out, then had to freeze the footage as we only got to see her face for a couple of seconds and her head rotated in one direction... Wow, bummer much.
Simply amazing!
Fascinating! Thank you!
Super interesting !
Very interesting! I never thought that I would watch through the end but I did! Thanks for sharing! ❤️
Wow this was freaking amazing
AMAZING!
