Claim 19:
20. The method of claim 17:
wherein deriving characteristics of the target set of facial features comprises:
initializing a target facial landmark container; and
for each facial landmark type in a predefined set of facial landmark types:
scanning the target image for features analogous to the facial landmark type;
in response to detecting a feature analogous to the facial landmark type, characterizing a position of the feature in the target image; and
representing the position of the feature in the target facial landmark container; and

wherein tuning the target set of face model coefficients comprises tuning the target set of face model coefficients to produce the synthetic test image approximating the face of the first user when the target set of face model coefficients and the target facial landmark container are loaded into a synthetic face generator.
