in order to be attracted, each work of must encounter viewer in its environment. at first it is virtual and is the result of sensitive subjectivity of the artist, and then it will be changed to objectivity and forms a piece of artwork. the artist of filmmaker is changing the virtual environment of the film; the virtual situation which is made in the mind of the scriptwriter and himself; and use...

Traditional Taiwanese glove puppet show is a unique form of performing art. In this work, we aim to use the aid of computer animation technologies to preserve this cultural heritage and create innovative ways of performance. By observing the demonstration of a puppet master, we analyze the characteristics of how a hand puppet is manipulated and design animation procedures mimicking the motion o...

Shadow puppet play has been a popular traditional storytelling method for many centuries in many parts of Asia. This paper describes a method to model a virtual shadow puppet play using sophisticated computer graphics techniques available in Adobe Flash in order to allow interactive play in real-time environment as well as producing realistic animation. Areal-time method is proposed to produce ...

This paper describes a method of modeling to model shadow play puppet using sophisticated computer graphics techniques available in OpenGL in order to allow interactive play in real-time environment as well as producing realistic animation. This paper proposes a novel real-time method is proposed for modeling of puppet and its shadow image that allows interactive play of virtual shadow play usi...

in a very general classification, films can be divided into three groups including fiction, nonfiction (i.e. documentary, experimental….) and animation. animation, as one major member of the three is a hybrid medium and art form which employs the expressive elements of other arts; that is it hybridizes and utilizes elements of dramatic arts (mainly cinema) and fine arts (painting, graphic desig...

When it comes to three dimensional computer animations, the use of live actors to control the movements of onscreen characters produces a realism that is unsurpassed. But so are the costs, and that is why Avratar, a virtual environment for puppet animation, uses widely available products utilizing motion capture technology to control a real time puppet in a world limited only by the imagination...

We are developing an intelligent approach of motion picture generation for desktop software system EMM (Electronic MovieMaker) that aims at automating the production of digital movies with various visual effects like three-dimensional animation, real image, and their composition. This paper describes our efforts focusing on automatic synthesis of character animation and automatic video retrieva...

It is established that concept “transversal competence” not sufficiently developed by European scientists. specified transversal competence universal new format an educator’s experience. articles mention Digital Skills composite educators. propose...

We argue that evolving game art like virtual performances and Machinima depend on better character control. That is why Puppet Show does not focus on new or optimized gameplay but aims to extend the expressive range of characters in an existing game world. Puppet Show is an interface plug-in for Epic’s Unreal Tournament 2004. Puppet Show uses an external Java program to feed visual input from a...

This paper presents an approach to realize a tool for interactive and intuitive deformation of 3D shapes, to be used, for example as a character animation tool. The approach combines a fast algorithm for 3D free form deformation that employs compactly supported radial basis function (CSRBF) with a high degrees-of-freedom input device of hand joint angles, namely, the CyberGlove. While shape def...
