Structures ANR project

Overview

The project Structures: hierarchical motion representation for stylized rendering is a research project funded by the ANR (ANR-19-CE38-0009-01).

Our approach is a combination of novel computer graphics techniques with a research and creation approach where artists, computer graphics scientists and art scientists merge their abilities and working approaches to produce new knowledge and techniques.
