Experimental animation and contemporary dance share a number of concepts, including the abstraction of ideas and themes, seeking to communicate with an audience through movement, syncopation, shape, and rhythm. Within this paper the authors investigate communication through movement within these two forms, firstly through discussion of professional experimental animation and dance performances ...

In the paper, we design and develop a speech driven face animation system based on the dynamic mapping method. The face animation is synthesized by the unit concatenating, and synchronous with the real speech. The units are selected according to the cost functions which correspond to voice spectrum distance between training and target units. Visual distance between two adjacent training units i...

This paper presents the design of an expandable animation system in which rigid and deformable multi-body systems are animated from the high-level model of physical objects. This new model called dream (Deformable and Rigid objects EEcient for Animation Modelling) makes the simulation of rigid and de-formable interconnected objects easy to design and to implement. dream is based on a uniied abs...

This research study was conducted to determine the effect of mobile learning model using social media platforms on outcomes 2d and 3d animation techniques for students class XI Multimedia at SMK Negeri 1 Tondano. uses experimental in form Quasi Experimental Design or quasi-experimental design used this is Post-Test Only Control Design. Before treatment given each class, a pre-test carried out f...

Complex biological systems involve incorporated behaviors of numerous processes, mechanisms and objects. However, experimental analysis, by its nature, divides biological systems into static interactions with little dynamics. To bridge the gap between experimental data and the underlying behavior, our group has been formalizing biological findings into mathematically and algorithmically rigorou...

This paper presents a novel expressive facial animation system based on a motion captured data stored in a database. Unlike common data-driven facial animation systems which only use mo-cap data of one expression at a time, our system can use data of more than one expression. Thus, the system can create a complex expression when the virtual human is talking. Using our method, the resulting faci...
