    Non Photorealistic Rendering BY DMYTRO TKACHUK COMPUTER GRAPHICS SEMINAR Non photorealistic rendering Non photorealistic rendering (NPR) is a process by which computer engineers try to animate and represent items inspired by paintings, drawings, cartoons and other sources that do not feature photorealism. Usage of NPR 1. Entertainment • Cartoons • Movies • Games • Illustrations 2. Technical illustrations • Architectural drawings • Assemblies • Exploded view diagrams 3. Smart depiction systems Cel Shading Cel Shading, also called toon shading, is a 3D technique based on a specific shading method, which recreates the look of traditional 2D animation cels with the use of flat colours and used for shading 3D objects in a unrealistic way. But it’s not only referred to a shading method, nowadays Cel Shading is known also and more generally as an artistic style/method of making 3D graphics seem cartoonish with the use of specifically colored textures, and also using outlines to simulate drawing lines. Cel shading Cel shading: how it works Shading Cel shading effect is generated from 3D object’s normals. Each normal has it’s own angle, which is determined between its direction and the lighting point. It calculates the respective cosine and applies a specific tone to that faces/area. Consequently, when the angle between normal and light is zero, the tone will be brighter. When the angle increases the tone will become darker. Cel shading: how it works Shading The different tones are flat and change without gradients, simulating cell painting style. Depending on the style, the number of tones can be increased or decreased. Cel shading: how it works Outline Sometimes to achieve cartoon look, computer graphics developers include black outlines simulating drawing strokes.

  • ECSE 4961/6961: Computer Vision and Graphics for Digital Arts Dvds for the Week of September 24–28
    ECSE 4961/6961: Computer Vision and Graphics for Digital Arts DVDs for the week of September 24–28 What Dreams May Come (Sept 24) Start with Chapter 6 (“Painting Your Own Surroundings”) about 24 minutes in. The setting is that the Robin Williams character has died and finds out that heaven, for him, is to be inside one of his wife’s paintings. There are some interesting effects reminiscent (although probably not technically related to) Hertzmann’s paper on painterly rendering. At about 25:30 there’s a shot with the camera pushing forward through flowers and plants. At about 28:00 there are some effects of sun-dappled water that capture a painterly feel. At 29:00 there’s a short clip of a bird flying through an expressionistic sky. You can stop watching around 32:00 (when the characters enter the house). Next, go to the extras and select the featurette. Skip forward to about 11:00 through 13:30 when the director and effects artists discuss how the painterly effect was achieved, and show some raw footage and steps to achieving the final effect. Discuss similarities and differences to Hertzmann, extensions and inspirations, technical strengths and weaknesses, etc. A Scanner Darkly (Sept 24) The whole movie is probably worth watching, but in the interest of keeping the video part to 15-20 minutes, I suggest going directly to the extras section of the disc. Watch the Theatrical Trailer, which gives a pretty good overview of the animation style in different scenes. Then watch the extra titled “The Weight of the Line: Animation Tales”.

  • The Uses of Animation 1
    The Uses of Animation 1 1 The Uses of Animation ANIMATION Animation is the process of making the illusion of motion and change by means of the rapid display of a sequence of static images that minimally differ from each other. The illusion—as in motion pictures in general—is thought to rely on the phi phenomenon. Animators are artists who specialize in the creation of animation. Animation can be recorded with either analogue media, a flip book, motion picture film, video tape,digital media, including formats with animated GIF, Flash animation and digital video. To display animation, a digital camera, computer, or projector are used along with new technologies that are produced. Animation creation methods include the traditional animation creation method and those involving stop motion animation of two and three-dimensional objects, paper cutouts, puppets and clay figures. Images are displayed in a rapid succession, usually 24, 25, 30, or 60 frames per second. THE MOST COMMON USES OF ANIMATION Cartoons The most common use of animation, and perhaps the origin of it, is cartoons. Cartoons appear all the time on television and the cinema and can be used for entertainment, advertising, 2 Aspects of Animation: Steps to Learn Animated Cartoons presentations and many more applications that are only limited by the imagination of the designer. The most important factor about making cartoons on a computer is reusability and flexibility. The system that will actually do the animation needs to be such that all the actions that are going to be performed can be repeated easily, without much fuss from the side of the animator.

  • Enhanced Cartoon and Comic Rendering

Hansen Short Papers Enhanced Cartoon and Comic Rendering Martin Spindler † and Niklas Röber and Robert Döhring ‡ and Maic Masuch Department of Simulation and Graphics, Otto-von-Guericke University of Magdeburg, Germany Abstract In this work we present an extension to common cel shading techniques, and describe four new cartoon-like ren- dering styles applicable for real-time implementations: stylistic shadows, double contour lines, soft cel shading, and pseudo edges. Our work was mainly motivated by the rich set of stylistic elements and expressional possibili- ties within the medium comic. In particular, we were inspired by Miller’s “Sin City” and McFarlane’s “Spawn”. We designed algorithms for these styles, developed a real-time implementation and integrated it into a regular 3D game engine.

They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms.

The rats, free to play, entertain themselves by dancing, playing phonograph records, cavorting with the player piano, and using the bathtub for a swimming pool. Soon the party gets completely out of control. (Why Alice was brewing alcohol in her basement remains an open question.) “Speaking of his studio in later years, Disney was fond of saying that ‘it all started with a little mouse’ – but in fact the foundation was laid in 1924 by a little girl.” – Merritt & Kaufman, Walt in Wonderland Young Walt Disney broke into the movie business in Kansas City, as an illustrator for a company that produced glass slides and advertising shorts for theaters. Along with his buddy Fred Harman, he struck out on his own, hoping to jump-start their new company with a partly-animated comical short called Laugh-O-Grams, produced for the influential local theater owner, Frank L. Newman. This was successful enough that they were able to secure funding to hire additional animators, including now- legendary pioneers Ubbe “Ub” Iwerks, Hugh Harman, Rudolph Ising, and Friz Freleng.

  • Artistic Styles Used in Computer Games
    Artistic Styles Used in Computer Games Pixel Art: Pixel art is an style that uses older looking visuals that were used on retro games. Pixel art is used in games as it is cheaper and easier to produce for indie companies and it is a throwback to the older generation of games. It is used in modern games like Fez which is an example of a pixel art game that is 3D which wasn't an available option in older generations of gaming as most pixel art games were 2D. An example of a pixel art game is minecraft which uses pixel art as it best fits with minecrafts block theme and block mechanics. Minecraft was made by a relatively small independant studio so the use of pixel art would have been cheaper and easier than using high resolution graphics. Also pixel art is appealing to adults who would have played older games with pixel graphics and children as the graphics are simple and not intimidating. Pixel art games are created on raster graphics software for example Microsoft Paint, Deluxe Paint and RPG Maker. Pros of pixel art are: ● It can be relatively quick and easy to create which is useful for quick projects or small companies. ● Pixel art has an indie feel about it which can attract an audience. ● Pixel art is a throwback to the older generations of games which can attract an older audience who grew up with games in that art style. Cons of pixel art: ● It can make the game look cheap and boring to some due to the simple graphics in an age of photorealistic games.
