System and methods for computer animations of 3D models of heads generated from images of faces is disclosed. A 2D captured image that includes an image of a face can be received and used to generate a static 3D model of a head. A rig can be fit to the static 3D model to generate an animation-ready 3D generative model. Sets of rigs can be parameters that each map to particular sounds or particular facial movement observed in a video. These mappings can be used to generate a playlists of sets of rig parameters based upon received audio or video content. The playlist may be played in synchronization with an audio rendition of the audio content. Methods can receive a captured image, identify taxonomy attributes from the captured image, select a template model for the captured image, and perform a shape solve for the selected template model based on the identified taxonomy attributes.
