ABSTRACT
The ever increasing complexity of the LEGO movies demanded a new way of managing project breakdowns. Animal Logic's fine-grained, modular representation for assets[Sarsfied and Murphy 2011] meant that hundreds and thousands of shots, and shot objects, needed to be managed. It was clear from our experience on the The LEGO Movie that our existing text-based spreadsheet approach would not scale to demands of The LEGO Batman Movie.

An art-directed wrinkle system for CG character clothing and skin
We present a kinematic system for creating art-directed clothing and skin wrinkles on CG characters used in the production of computer-animated feature films. This system employs a curve-based method for generating wrinkles on reference poses, which are ...
Animated feather coats using field lines
AFRIGRAPH '07: Proceedings of the 5th international conference on Computer graphics, virtual reality, visualisation and interaction in AfricaThe tedious task of manually placing feathers on computer animated objects involves aligning feathers, ensuring that they do not insect each other or penetrate the surface, deforming every feather to match the local surface features, and ensuring that ...
