Allen voran m¨ochte ich meinem Doktorvater Prof. Wolfgang Effelsberg danken, der mir - ohne mich vorher als Master-Studenten gekannt zu haben - die Promotion an seinem Lehrstuhl erm¨oglichte und mit Geduld, Empathie und nicht zuletzt einem mir unbegreiflichen Verst¨andnisf¨ur meine verschiedenen Ausfl¨ugein die Weiten der Informatik unterst¨utzthat.

  • Making a Game Character Move
    Piia Brusi MAKING A GAME CHARACTER MOVE Animation and motion capture for video games Bachelor’s thesis Degree programme in Game Design 2021 Author (authors) Degree title Time Piia Brusi Bachelor of Culture May 2021 and Arts Thesis title 69 pages Making a game character move Animation and motion capture for video games Commissioned by South Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences Supervisor Marko Siitonen Abstract The purpose of this thesis was to serve as an introduction and overview of video game animation; how the interactive nature of games differentiates game animation from cinematic animation, what the process of producing game animations is like, what goes into making good game animations and what animation methods and tools are available. The thesis briefly covered other game design principles most relevant to game animators: game design, character design, modelling and rigging and how they relate to game animation. The text mainly focused on animation theory and practices based on commentary and viewpoints provided by industry professionals. Additionally, the thesis described various 3D animation and motion capture systems and software in detail, including how motion capture footage is shot and processed for games. The thesis ended on a step-by-step description of the author’s motion capture cleanup project, where a jog loop was created out of raw motion capture data. As the topic of game animation is vast, the thesis could not cover topics such as facial motion capture and procedural animation in detail. Technologies such as motion matching, machine learning and range imaging were also suggested as topics worth covering in the future.

  • A Procedural Interface Wrapper for Houdini Engine in Autodesk Maya
    A PROCEDURAL INTERFACE WRAPPER FOR HOUDINI ENGINE IN AUTODESK MAYA A Thesis by BENJAMIN ROBERT HOUSE Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, André Thomas Committee Members, John Keyser Ergun Akleman Head of Department, Tim McLaughlin May 2019 Major Subject: Visualization Copyright 2019 Benjamin Robert House ABSTRACT Game development studios are facing an ever-growing pressure to deliver quality content in greater quantities, making the automation of as many tasks as possible an important aspect of modern video game development. This has led to the growing popularity of integrating procedural workflows such as those offered by SideFX Software’s Houdini FX into the already established de- velopment pipelines. However, the current limitations of the Houdini Engine plugin for Autodesk Maya often require developers to take extra steps when creating tools to speed up development using Houdini. This hinders the workflow for developers, who have to design their Houdini Digi- tal Asset (HDA) tools around the limitations of the Houdini Engine plugin. Furthermore, because of the implementation of the HDA’s parameter display in Maya’s Attribute Editor when using the Houdini Engine Plugin, artists can easily be overloaded with too much information which can in turn hinder the workflow of any artists who are using the HDA. The limitations of an HDA used in the Houdini Engine Plugin in Maya as a tool that is intended to improve workflow can actually frustrate and confuse the user, ultimately causing more harm than good.

  • Easy Facial Rigging and Animation Approaches
    Pedro Tavares Barata Bastos EASY FACIAL RIGGING AND ANIMATION APPROACHES A dissertation in Computer Graphics and Human-Computer Interaction Presented to the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Digital Media Supervisor: Prof. Verónica Costa Orvalho April 2015 ii This work is financially supported by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) via grant SFRH/BD/69878/2010, by Fundo Social Europeu (FSE), by Ministério da Educação e Ciência (MEC), by Programa Operacional Potencial Humano (POPH), by the European Union (EU) and partially by the UT Austin | Portugal program. Abstract Digital artists working in character production pipelines need optimized facial animation solutions to more easily create appealing character facial expressions for off-line and real- time applications (e.g. films and videogames). But the complexity of facial animation has grown exponentially since it first emerged during the production of Toy Story (Pixar, 1995), due to the increasing demand of audiences for better quality character facial animation. Over the last 15 to 20 years, companies and artists developed various character facial animation techniques in terms of deformation and control, which represent a fragmented state of the art in character facial rigging. Facial rigging is the act of planning and building the mechanical and control structures to animate a character's face. These structures are the articulations built by riggers and used by animators to bring life to a character. Due to the increasing demand of audiences for better quality facial animation in films and videogames, rigging faces became a complex field of expertise within character production pipelines.

  • Surrealist Aesthetics
    SURREALIST AESTHETICS Using Surrealist Aesthetics to Explore a Personal Visual Narrative about Air Pollution Peggy Li Auckland University of Technology Master of Design 2020 A thesis submitted to Auckland University of Technology in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Design, Digital Design P a g e | 1 Abstract “Using Surrealist Aesthetics to Explore a Personal Visual Narrative about Air Pollution”, is a practice-based research project focusing on the production of a poetic short film that incorporates surrealist aesthetics with motion capture and digital simulation effects. The project explores surrealist aesthetics using visual effects combined with motion capture techniques to portray the creator’s personal experiences of air pollution within a poetic short film form. This research explicitly portrays this narrative through the filter of the filmmaker’s personal experience, deploying an autoethnographic methodological approach in the process of its creation. The primary thematic contexts situated within this research are surrealist aesthetics, personal experiences and air pollution. The approach adopted for this research was inspired by the author’s personal experiences of feeling trapped in an air-polluted environment, and converting these unpleasant memories using a range of materials, memories, imagination, and the subconscious mind to portray the negative effects of air pollution. The overall aim of this process was to express my experiences poetically using a surrealist aesthetic, applied through
