Face Swap App Rokk! Version 2.1 Introduces New Social Networking Features

NEW YORK, July 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Video entertainment app Rokk! has completed version 2.1 with five all new functions made available worldwide from July 4. Rokk! has introduced new social networking features to give user the chance to become their favorite celebrity.

Developed by JoyoDream Technology (Shenzhen) Company Limited (JoyoDream), Rokk! is a short video montage editing app developed with facial recognition, computer graphics and augmented reality technology. Users can record footage on their smartphone camera and select their favorite celebrities to use the life-like face swap function.

Through detecting and tracking facial key points as well as the support of beauty adjustment and high definition, Rokk! has achieved a seamless synthesis of masks and users' faces to provide the most realistic and fitted expressions, enabling the celebrity masks to reflect the same facial expressions as the user, be it a frown, an open mouth or making funny faces.

In addition to real-time presentation and realistic effect features, in the newly updated version 2.1, Rokk! has added the following all-new optimized functions:

• AR Face Swap
  Users can swipe horizontally to select and change masks while recording the video. Version 2.1 allows three users to change masks on the same screen simultaneously, improving the multi-player interactivity and the fun of social networking.
• Karaoke Function
  The karaoke function will automatically match a corresponding music segment in the Instrumental category with the video after the user selects a mask with a lyric prompt displayed on the screen. Alternative options are available for users to pick up their favorite songs. Users can also record their own music video and share on social networks like Facebook or Twitter.
• Live Video Filters
  Version 2.1 has introduced 9 live video filters for users to give the video a makeover or be creative and funny.
• Continue shooting from breakpoint function
  The new Rokk! produces a complete video by automatically connecting the previous clips when the user breaks off or pauses filming. It also allows users to change masks or shift cameras during the shooting.
• Screenshot to save as photo
  Version 2.1 allows users to save the images to the camera roll after applying the mask, recording interesting moments anytime anywhere.

"The five new functions of Rokk! highlight the improved entertainment features and better experience of sharing on social networks," said Zhong Minglu, founder of JoyoDream. "We're confident that everyone who uses the app will have a lot of fun with it."

Zhong remarked that Rokk! will continue to expand the categories and number of masks, gradually introducing more social networking functions that will not only give users the chance to record the fun fragments of life, but also share them with friends.
