I should take a minute to tell you why i haven't been that active lately. I just finished putting on my dental braces and it took me a while before i got use to them. Also i've started working on a personal project... that's going to take up some of my time from now on. I have my personal life to take care of, my job and you know just taking a nap from time to time.
My mouse broke, i don't have any money left but at least spring is here. I will probably start falling in love again.. yey :). At least now i know what to look for so i won't get hurt by a "bad girl".
It's the first of march. It's a local holiday here for all the girls.... so Happy Birthday and the best to all the girls and/or women that i know and/or don't know.

I recently joined Anonymous and i offered my knowledge to them. This is why i started making a few videos with scientology members.
This is the famous Tom Cruise video which started the move.
* I will only show facial emotions... i will do another video with his body movement.
1) 00:01:18 / disgust in lower face - slightly contempt /
2) 00:01:34 / slight anger, maybe he is trying to conceal it /
3) 00:01:41 / conceal happiness. he is amused about something and is trying to conceal it with his hand. it's a happiness expression made with the whole face. also he is looking down and to his right which mean that he is remembering a feeling. /
4) 00:03:03 / micro expression of disgust. it's actually such a brief expresion that i can't make a gif to show you. if you want to see it start 1 second before the time and start looking for it until one second after this time. /
* there is one more at 00:02:27. the same micro expression it last only 600 microseconds.
5) 00:03:56 / contempt smile - asymmetric smile /
6) 00:04:24 / first of all that is not a smile it's actually a scorn. it's so well concealed you have to be very careful to see it. /
A few things that you have to take into consideration. First he is an actor... and a famous one although talent is something subjective. Even so he is trained to act... that means to fake emotions. And he is pretty good at it. This is probably the reason why I've seen only micro expressions. About the micro expression it's still a pretty bad video so the quality of my analysis is somewhat questionable. I would like to hear your opinion.
This is the first post i will do about this video. There is a lot of body movement and i would like to try to do a transcript analysis.... taking out all the bable and it will be interesting to see what we end up with.

I recently got interested about Project Chanology and i promise to start making videos about scientologist which is very cool because they're such bad lairs despite what you would think.
This is the first video i was asked to view:
and here is the result:
1) 00:00:11 / contempt - asymmetrical smile /
2) 00:00:23 / looking down and to his left - this is the direction of someone eyes as they "talk to themselves". /
3) 00:00:25 - 3 seconds / shoulder shrug - i've talked about what this means in another article /
- 00:00:30 - 3 seconds
- 00:00:50 - 4 seconds /
4) 00:01:38 / disgust - upper lip si raised /
*transcript: this thing's happen, we report them to law enforcement
- 00:01:47 /
*transcript: from our stand point we are caring on.
To be continued... sorry to leave you half way but i have something else to do tonight.

I'm finishing this video
It's very important when you start to detect emotions to have a baseline of how the person looks or stand normally. He may have a back problem and walk leaning forward. If in this case you see him talking with someone it's false to assume that he is interested in the person. As with the face the length or deepness of wrinkles on the face determine in some percentage what the emotions is. With age some faces tend to have more permanent wrinkles so you have to be careful with judging the expression.
It's very hard to find normal faces usually there smiling which makes most of the permanent wrinkles disappear.
and
1) time 00:03:03 / sadness in the lower eyelids , looking down and sadness mouth /
2) time 00:04:49 / happiness in the eyes and in the mouth /
3) time 00:05:28 / slight angry registered by the brown lowered and drawn togheter, vertical lines appearing between the brows and lower lip tense and raised
* The anger emotions has to register on the full face or it can mean something else. You have to take into consideration what he is saying that we see this kind of emotions.
Part of the transcript: "I don't make statements like i don't work in a emergency room if you have a conscience and are for abortions. I mean how do you make statements like that."
We can pretty safely assume that he is angry on the people who say such things.
4) time 00:06:57 / sadness the same as before with a little bit of fear in the forehead. There are horizontal lines only in the middle part.
There are a few more emotions until the end of the video. I should point to two important moments when he beats his lips twice. The first time at 00:07:13 and a second time at 00:07:22 meaning that he is probably anxious or nervous about the statements.

I have shown a lot of videos in which I have pointed out this subtle body movement but haven't taken the time to explain what dose it mean. The wikipedia article refers to "an exercise in weight training". For detecting lies this sign represent not knowing something.
This is the full body movement:
which is a pretty common sign. You probably seen it when you ask somebody a question and he doesn't know the answer
It's a general rule in detecting lies and emotions that if something isn't done right or doesn't seem natural it's probably wrong. Although in this example if you ask somebody a question and he doesn't raise his shoulders as up as he can it doesn't necessarily mean that he isn't truthful. It can just mean that for example while he is answering he kind of remembers the answer. Or he/she isn't exactly sure about the answer but choose to answer that he/she doesn't know because they're is in a hurry.
You always have to take in account what the subject of the inquiry is and the situation. This is a word of warning regarding all of the future tutorials. You shouldn't assume anything base upon one or two observation. You should take into consideration a lot of facts before you can say that somebody is lying. There isn't anything that can replace evidence in telling if somebody is truthful or not.
The shoulder shrugs that i have shown you are partial body movement. They usually occur when the person isn't sure about what he is saying.
Here are a few examples from the videos that i have analyzed:
The feeling that i have when I'm doing this is that I'm not comfortable in my own skin. I'm usually well aware of this type of sign's when I'm making them yet most people aren't. I have done a few controlled experiments in which this particular body movement is pretty common. I can't show the videos because the people that i have worked with(usually friend and family) wouldn't be to happy about this. In my experiments i ask the person that i would be interviewing a few question which they can answer truthfully or not. After the interview was over i would go over the question with them and get the sentences that are lies and the one's that are truthful and then watch the videos for sign's of deceit. It's not always a intentional misleading. Sometimes i would ask a difficult question and the first answer wouldn't always be truthful.
Hope this short tutorial was helpful and see you soon when i finish the "Chris Matthews Predicts Brown Win" video.

I will start a series of short tutorial to explain what i'm talking about. I don't know how exactly to do this but i will try to do my best. As everything i will start with little things and go on to bigger things.
First of all a short explanation that has been on the Internet for a long time. You can find it here. I won't copy everything. You can read it at the link.
There are only one thing i consider important that i want you to remember. First of all a image is worth 1000 words.
Meaning:
C = constructed as in Visually Constructed / Auditory Constructed
R = remember as in Visually Remembered / Auditory Remembered
F and I = Feeling / Kinesthetic and Internal Dialog.
Let's put things into perspective.

Let's put things into perspective.
Let's say your child ask's you for a cookie, and you ask them "well, what did your mother say?" As they reply "Mom said... yes." they look to the left. This would indicate a made up answer as their eyes are showing a "constructed image or sound. Looking to the right would indicated a "remembered" voice or image, and thus would be telling the truth.
This is the video i'm talking about.
I did two posts down a partial analysis. I will continue here. In case you didn't notice i kind of moved a little bit from the realm of emotions. The reasons is that there are such good sign's that i can't resist. But for those of you who aren't familiar with detecting lies i will do a series of tutorial to help you get started.
As for this video this is what i saw:
1) time 00:00:38 / false suprise /
2) time 00:01:15 - 00:01:17 / shoulder shrug and contemp on his face/
3) time 00:01:22 - 00:01:26 / I don't know exactly what happened here. The thing is he isn't that confident about what he is talking about. Is a pretty big issue if iphone will have success or not. This is a body movement. It's like he isn't comfortable in his skin and tries to get out
4) time 00:01:41 - 00:01:43 / shoulder shrug /
And that's it. You be the judge about what he is really felling.

She is a politician from my country. Actually the minister of tourism. You can read more about her at this page. First thing is first:
1) normal face
2) just for posterity... try not to look at the cleavage... the face is more important :D
The video i wanted to show you is this one:
It's not one of most importance but is actually very funny. I will tell you all it's story after i do a little bit of analyze.
1) time 00:00:05 - 00:00:07 / false surprise, moving her face to one side /
2) time 00:00:09 - 00:00:11 / a lot of eye flicker /
3) time 00:00:12 / disgust /
4) time 00:00:16 / shoulder shrug /
5) time 00:00:37 / false smile /
For as much as i am concern she isn't truthful about not knowing anything about the telephone call. And in case you are wondering what it's all about. A few days before this interview on a well known TV program someone phoned and started praising her that she was doing a very good job. The TV host actually said "I have a very good musical ears, aren't you miss Elena Udrea?" The rest is history.

This is the interview after the IPhone was launched:

2) time 00:00:04 / false smile /
3) time 00:00:12 - 00:00:14 / false surprise /
4) time 00:00:26 / fear /
* i never thought i would see such a emotion so quickly. It's my third video and to see one of the most rarest emotions caught on camera.
5) time 00:00:26 - 00:00:30 / shoulder shrug /
* i will explain in a later post was the shoulder shrug is all about
I will stop here with this video... i have a lot of thing to do. The next post will contain the rest of the analysis. And in the near future i will start posting a little general information for those of you who don't know anything about detecting human emotions.

In this post I'm going to do something a little bit harder. I'm going to try to show the emotions of president Obama when he announced that he was surprised, humbled by the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize.
This is the video:
First a little bit of documentation. I need to see how a neutral face look likes. Unfortunately there isn't any out there or i should look harder. Anyways i found this ones showing a happy face, a neutral and a angry one so we should have a pretty good understanding of how his face normally looks like.
Happy
Normal - slightly concentrated
Angry
Now for the video
1) time 00:00:22 / slight anger shown in full face /
2) time 00:00:23 / masked expresion of anger /
... it basically like this all the movie. He is showing slight anger. This can also be concentration on what he is doing but no surprise or happiness. The reason may be multiple and i won't talk about the truth about what he is saying. Sorry about the poor quality and so little images but this is only my second time and i have yet to master enough patience to cut up the video before and prepare everything. I'm doing this on the fly and i am late as it is.
