Randomizing Features

The Mutator, located in the bottom-right corner of the screen, lets you
randomize the features of the face in the Image Canvas. When you use
the Mutator, features are taken from the GOO libraries and randomly
combined on the face.

Feature
controls
You can control the mutation, or randomization, process by choosing
either male or female features. When you choose either male or
female, the random features are constrained to the selected gender.
For example, if you select male, only random male features are applied
to the face.
You can also constrain the randomization process. Using the Feature
controls you can choose exactly which features are randomized. When
you disable a feature, it is not randomized. You can use these controls
to refine your mutations. For example, when you find a head you like,
disable the head control, and continue randomizing. Then when you
find a mouth, disable the mouth control as well. You can continue
disabling controls until you're happy with the entire face.

Combining Features

Not only can the FUSION Room create faces from a library of existing
features, it can also fuse the features from existing pictures to create a
totally new face. This way you can take pictures of your family and
friends and combine them to create fantastic new faces.
Features are combined using a process called cloning. When you clone
something, a portion of a source image is duplicated on to a
destination image. The Clone tool in the Edit palette lets you pick an
area of the source image to duplicate onto the face in the Image
Canvas.
