Making Magic with 3D Volume Style Transfer

Published: 18 July 2024 Publication History

Abstract

In order to achieve the unique look of a hand-drawn, 2D visual style blended with 3D effects elements in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ film "Wish", effects artists leveraged new applications of Volumetric Neural Style Transfer (VNST) techniques. VNST, a method for stylizing 3D volume simulations by extracting the textures and shapes from a 2D image, has been increasingly more effective in assisting the stylization of effects through a number of the studio’s previous projects. For "Wish", the effects artists took advantage of new advancements to inform and accelerate the visual development process, increase the reuse and efficiency of VNST throughout production, and achieve levels of style with detail unachievable with previous methods.
