Hello Epic Games Team,
I’m currently developing a non-commercial, academic web-based platform that integrates AI-driven facial animation (using SadTalker) to create interactive virtual humans.
I would like to request your explicit permission (or a custom license) to use a photorealistic MetaHuman portrait rendered in Unreal Engine, then animated externally using AI on the user’s local device. No personal data is uploaded, and the platform only outputs a video animation using the MetaHuman face.
I understand that this use falls outside the standard MetaHuman license, and I wish to remain fully compliant with your policies.
This is strictly an academic project (not for sale or public release), and I’m happy to provide any documentation or prototypes for review.
Thank you very much for your time and support.
Best regards,
Maryem Jlassi
