For the next STORM seminar, Gauthier Bouyjou will give a presentation titled : PostFX Shadow Layers

Abstract

The rendering of a computer generated image records not only a “photo” image of the scene, but also other information in the form of 2D layers, such as the distance to the viewpoint,
the orientation of surfaces, and the unique identifiers of each represented object. Graphic designers combine these layers to modify the final appearance of the scene in detail: this is called compositing.
Our project concerns the creation of rendering layers representing the shadows of the objects, taking into account all the light-surface interactions. The creation of these layers is anchored in the heart of the rendering software.In this presentation, I will describe the PostFX Shadow Layers project funded by the Occitanie region as well as the research article on which this project is based.
Then I will present you my work with the last results of implementations as well as the difficulties that I could meet during the course of this project.
Finally I will describe the future work.

This seminar will take place online on Friday 30/04 at 12:30pm.
