ABSTRACT
Dynamic mesh sharpening is a custom new process used throughout the film Puss in Boots: The Last Wish to dynamically flatten out cloth surfaces and sharpen folds/wrinkles to impart a more graphic planar look than the look obtained from the cloth simulation alone. This process allowed the planar look to be realized in animated shots rather than just in a reference sculpted model. It allowed us to see simulated clothing with sharpened wrinkles that had the same design language as the rest of the film assets. This talk presents the comprehensive approach used to dynamically sharpen meshes.

Mesh puppetry: cascading optimization of mesh deformation with inverse kinematics
We present mesh puppetry, a variational framework for detail-preserving mesh manipulation through a set of high-level, intuitive, and interactive design tools. Our approach builds upon traditional rigging by optimizing skeleton position and vertex ...
Mesh forging: editing of 3D-meshes using implicitly defined occluders
SGP '03: Proceedings of the 2003 Eurographics/ACM SIGGRAPH symposium on Geometry processingIn recent years the ease of use and the flexibility in the editing process shifted into focus in modelling and animation applications. In this spirit we present a 3D mesh editing method that is similar to the simple constrained deformation (scodef) ...
Dynamic sprites: artistic authoring of interactive animations
Traditional methods for creating dynamic objects and characters from static drawings involve careful tweaking of animation curves and/or simulation parameters. Sprite sheets offer a more drawing-centric solution, but they do not encode timing ...
