Social Visualization Course Assignment: “Reading 11”

The paper presented methods for painterly rendering of videos. It is based on the methods developed earlier for the still images but used innovative techniques to minimize the errors occurring with the videos. One interesting point in the paper it the categorizing of the previous efforts in this regard as either generating representations of a painted world, or painted representations of a world. The first one attached stroked to the geometry over time while the second detach the strokes from the geometry. The paper followed the second method and kept strokes spate from geometry. The result is the change in strokes over time which gives some hand-made artistic effect to the video.
