# A Drop of Doubt

An interactive adaptation inspired by episode 62 of *Empresses in the Palace* (《甄嬛传》).
The English dialogue and Chinese comparison text are a condensed retelling, covering the opening accusation through the summons for the first witness.

## Dramatic source

- [Original scene, official Letv episode 62](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIKZAj9lpNA&t=1958s).
- [Closing command in the same episode](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIKZAj9lpNA&t=2073s).

The modeled room and figures are stylized reconstructions informed by the drama.
The small portraits in the character index are reference images from the drama and its publicity photography; they are not original project photography.
The rendered faces use geometry and vertex color, without photographic face maps.

## Models and type

The head topology derives from the MediaPipe canonical face model under Apache 2.0, with fitting, cranium closure, refinement, and vertex color added for this project.
