For the next STORM seminar, Nicolas Barroso will give a presentation titled :Hierarchical motion representation for stylized rendering

Abstract

Animation movies show great media of artistic expression, allowing artists to convey powerful narrations, while not being limited to the existing range of shapes and motions. Unfortunately, they are significantly tedious and time consuming to produce. It is particularly the case for 2D animation composed of sets of marks, such as paint or drawings. Standard stroke-based rendering methods can automatically produce stylized content made of marks such as paint strokes or hatching. They either focus on a specific style or technique to propose a fully automatic process, or allow to tweak style along larges sets of parameters, which may not be the more intuitive solution for an artist. They usually do not take into account style features related to motion, which is an important aspect of animation design.

This seminar will take place online on Friday 12/02 at 12:30pm.
