After a couple of months of staring at each faces and probably seeing most "configurations" of ones appearance and their room, people now just don't bother to switch on cameras. Not sure if people would like to stare at fake heads when they don't particularly enjoy the real ones... Maybe it could be more fun if you could choose like fantasy attributes of your character e.g. armor, extra head, two noses etc.

you don't really need very sophisticated model for this.

just use dlib to detect face landmarks and apply some very basic hue/contrast/brightness localized filter to imitate lipstick, make-up, mascara, etc.

that's what some software can already do out of the box (e.g. zoom) and the results are very good

And having people select between scenes, as well as idling behavior when you are not in the actual frame as well
